About Saint Cloud Math and Science Academy and Our Curriculum

Students will participate in an embedded program with cross curriculum. The students will learn reading, spelling, vocabulary, grammar, and comprehension skills. They will be focused on learning Science, Technology, Engineering and Math in our STEM program. They will be exposed to the arts and culture, physical education, and citizenship.

Our K-6 students learn math with the Everyday Mathematics curriculum. It is important for students to develop a deeper understanding of math and possess the ability to defend their reasoning. Everyday Math does just that through a spiraled instructional approach. Students will develop their ability to discuss mathematics, experience a productive struggle, play math games, and fill in any gaps in their learning.
