Mission Statement:
Camas Ridge is a school where we are committed to meeting each child’s rate and level of learning. We are a culturally inclusive community of learners where all styles are valued.
Program Description:
Mornings are focused on the core instruction of language arts and math. In the afternoon we have project-based instruction where students will investigate open-ended questions and apply their knowledge to produce authentic products. Projects will extend and enhance core skills and include community-based activities. During the year we also have art blocks which allow partnering with local artists and community resources. Types of classes in the art block include music, theater, video, fine arts, culinary arts, dance and creative writing/poetry. The last portion of the day is Community Time where we focus on social problem solving, caring, sharing and decision making in a multi-age setting.
School Highlights:
  • Developmental kindergarten which allows students to transition into elementary school life
  • After-school extended activities (ACE after-school program, extended-day Title I choir, Spanish and chess); these programs allow students to connect to school, increasing the opportunity for student success
