Fifth Grade

American Ballet Theatre

Selected students have an opportunity to perform at the Metropolitan Opera House.

Impact Coaching Network (Chess)

Students in grades 1-5 learn about healthy eating and nutrition.  Each grade focuses on a different aspect of healthy eating and nutrition. The Dinner Party Project allows fifth grade students to learn and implement components necessary to plan a dinner party, such as cooking a meal and serving the courses to their families at the culminating dinner party event.  Students learn the different courses within a meal and the importance of eating a meal together.
