Greek Afternoon School

Our School is an afternoon instructional program with classes from kindergarten through junior high school. The curriculum, aligned with the Standards of the Department of Greek Education of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America, emphasizes a knowledge of both written and spoken Greek, as well as the study of ethnic culture, religious holidays, and feasts.

Additionally, our Parish has signed a contract with the learning platform Ellinopoula for our Greek Afternoon School. Through digital technology, children will learn Greek through educational videos, entertaining games, interactive exercises, and lessons. They will learn about Greek culture, Greek heritage, and their Greek identity. The platform includes lessons in mathematics, mythology, geography, and history. This digital technology will be in addition to our rich curriculum: 

Kindergarten

For children aged 5. Children begin to learn and recognize the letters of the Greek alphabet from a young age. Children learn to create the first syllables, and they learn about the colors, the shapes, and the numbers through interactive games and videos. A friendship class full of energy and creativity.

Grades 1st through 8th

Students continue to learn to read and to write the most beautiful and interesting language in the world.They enrich their Greek vocabulary, grammar, reading, writing, and listening through a combination of books ”Τα Ελληνικά μου”, ”Γειά χαρά”, ”KΛΙΚ”, interactive games, videos, and quizzes.
