ELEMENTARY

At the heart of our educational philosophy is the nurturing of each student's imagination and curiosity. We believe these vital sparks are not only the foundation for individual growth but also essential for social development. Our commitment is to cultivate these qualities in every child, recognizing their power to shape futures.


We recognize that childhood experiences, no matter how small, can have a significant impact on a person's life trajectory. Children discover their creativity and the value of collaboration through a diverse set of activities. Our aim is to create a supportive environment in which these moments of discovery are not only possible but also encouraged, instilling a lifelong love of learning.


We can teach from experience, but we cannot teach experience.

Welcome to CCAS, the home of Motoongees!

 

I served as a pastor and teacher of the church education sector for the over 30 years. From preschoolers to collegians, I have met a lot of students. Some of them grew up as core members of the society, raised families of their own, and are now parenting their children granted by God with love. 


Throughout such experience I, alongside those students-turned-parents, have contemplated on one big question: “How should we live and bring up our children?” 


I would like to launch a journey searching for the answers to the question here at Cornerstone. Because I witness those little seeds that I planted a long time ago having grown up, waiting to be harvested at CCAS. 


I believe that at CCAS, everyone is entitled to experience the Kingdom of God regardless of your beliefs. It is the place where you can be comfortable to the never-concluded agenda of “how we should live and bring up the children.”


Warm regards,


Pastor Choi

Afternoon Enrichment program is designed to extend learning opportunities beyond the regular hours, offering students a variety of educational and enrichment activities. This program aims to support students in reinforcing their academic skills, exploring new interests, and developing hobbies in a structured yet relaxed environment. From academic tutoring to arts, our offerings cater to a wide range of interests, promoting holistic development and providing a safe, engaging space for students to thrive after the day ends.

Based on a Christian worldview, students participate in Daily Bread sessions twice or three times a week, following a curriculum focused on education of spirituality. The term "Daily Bread" comes from a part of the prayer taught by Jesus in Matthew 6, symbolizing hope that the shared messages during these 20-minute periods serve as daily spiritual nourishment. Themes vary by day, including connecting Bible verses to students' lives, integrating students' concerns with biblical messages through requested songs, and character-building tales that weave Christian principles with engaging stories. These sessions foster a sense of community among students and between students and teachers, linking their lives and faith in a meaningful way.

The assessment is an essential component of the planning, implementation, and evaluation. It is a formally and informally collected method of gathering information that allows teachers to measure student progress against predetermined benchmarks, reflect on their own teaching strategies, and determine what students know and understand, what they have learned, and what they can do. Effective evaluations are constructive and supportive of student learning and instruction.

  • NWEA Measure of Academic Progress (MAP) | The MAP  was designed to be used by students for kindergarten through 12th-grade students, underlining the importance of tracking progress to improve education in general. The tests are assessed reading, language usage, math, and, for some grades, general sciences.  The MAP Growth provides each child with a unique testing experience that is suitable for his or her academic level, independent of grade. This makes the MAP different from other standardized tests that you or your child may have seen in the past and makes it even more important to be familiar with the test’s format and changing difficulty level before test day. The test is untimed but it usually takes about an hour to complete.  The MAP test is a growth chart. It shows how much he or she has grown from one year to the next. Normally students will be ideally tested in Fall, Winter, and Spring. So, we recommend taking the MAP test twice a year, and up to four times a year.
  • Interim Assessments: During the academic year, teachers conduct ongoing assessments to measure students' understanding of the curriculum presented. This process involves evaluating the depth of students' knowledge and skills in relation to the material taught. Based on these evaluations, teachers can predict the students' proficiency levels, identifying both strengths and areas needing improvement. This approach not only tracks progress but also guides instructional strategies to enhance learning outcomes.

English as an Additional Language (EAL) program is designed to help students learning English as their second or additional language become fluent and confident in both academic and social contexts. It offers a practical approach to language learning, with interactive lessons, activities, and personalized support. EAL teachers focus on effective communication and ensure each student is equipped to participate fully in school life. The program integrates English learning with the general curriculum, enabling EAL students to improve their language skills while keeping pace with their studies

Winter Celebration offers students the chance to build their music and performance skills, focusing on reading and singing notes, stage presence, creating harmony, and practicing independently. This event not only celebrates the joyous season of Christmas but also serves as a platform for students to gain confidence in their abilities, work as part of a harmonious team, and showcase their hard-earned skills in front of an audience.
