Charlotte Mason Model

CIAS Campus School elementary classes utilize the Five in a Row curriculum for grades K5-3. FIAR is a Charlotte Mason method.

​

Charlotte Mason proposed that children should be given time to play, create, and be involved in real-life situations from which they can learn. Students of the FIAR Charlotte Mason method at CIAS take nature walks, go on field trips, participate in project or activity-based learning, and learn math, languages, literature, history, geography, and science from “living books," books that make these subjects come alive.

GRADE-LEVEL INCLUSIVE CLASSROOMS

​All GENED (neurotypical) and SPED/ESE (neurodivergent) students learn and work together in inclusive classrooms. Our grade levels are grouped into the 6 classes:

Early Elementary- K5-1st

Lower Elementary- 2-3rd

Upper Elementary- 4-5th

Middle School- 6-8th

High School- 9-12th (2 classes)

​​

​

LOW TEACHER-STUDENT RATIOS

CIAS purposefully keeps our teacher-student ratios low so that our teachers are able to address the learning needs of all our students, providing small-group learning opportunities, activity-based learning, and one-on-one tutoring as needed. The lowest ratio is in early elementary: 1:6, and the highest ratio is in high school: 1:12.​​​

​​

​

SPECIAL EDUCATION/ESE/NEURODIVERGENT STUDENTS

Special education/ESE/neurodivergent students are integrated into regular general education classrooms and receive multiple levels of Response to Intervention (RTI), intervention with varying tiers of accommodations and modifications, maintaining academic rigor to target learning objectives and standards of learning (SOLs) in a least restrictive environment (LRE).

 

​

DIAGNOSTIC SCREENING & PLACEMENT ASSESSMENTS
