Welcome to Kings Highway Elementary School
In grades K–5, students acquire foundational knowledge and skills, develop critical thinking and problem solving skills and experience a love of learning that will last a lifetime. Although the focus of elementary education is reading, writing, and mathematics, the elementary school curriculum also incorporates science, social studies, health, Spanish, technology, art, music and physical fitness. The primary goal of our literacy and mathematics programs is to turn kids into life-long, confident readers, writers, and mathematicians who display both agency and independence.

Kindergarten is in their first year of implementing the Developing Roots math program. Our KHS math coach, Caitlin Walsh, visited Ms. Doherty’s class to facilitate a "shelf day." Kindergarteners rotated around the room to stations with a purpose of reinforcing new learning, practicing previously learned skills, or extending and enriching taught concepts.
