CURRICULUM

PROGRAM OF STUDIES

The program of studies at St. Pius X School offers the entire New York State curriculum in conjunction with the curriculum of the Albany Roman Catholic Diocese. We are a Middle States Association Accredited school, recognized for our devotion to our mission, high academic standards, and commitment to addressing the concerns of our parents and the needs of our students. Within the prescribed curriculum and course of study, teachers have the flexibility and are encouraged to be creative in the design of their instructional patterns. They are encouraged to use a variety of techniques and methods of approach in the teaching of their subject matter always with the focus on motivating students and meeting their individual needs and learning styles. Students partake in daily prayers, school liturgies and student service projects throughout the year. Religion lessons and the Gospel message are taught each day. Technology, Spanish, Art, Music, Library, and Physical Education classes are taught to all grades Kindergarten through eighth.
