Art

FPD's elementary art program begins in 3K. The curriculum builds each year giving students a wide range and vocabulary of art mediums and processes. Students are engaged and encouraged weekly to create works with the end result being of the highest quality.

Music

In FPD Lower School Music, children actively participate in making music! Beginning in 3K, they sing and explore basic instruments. In K - 2nd grade, students come twice a week; once for general music class and once for strings (small violin).

 

Chapel

In addition to daily biblical worldview integration into coursework, FPD lower school students enjoy a regular time of worship at our elementary chapels. Fifth graders primarily lead worship at chapel. During the spring, 1st-4th graders rotate through leading worship.

Innovation Station (STEAM Lab)

FPD's newest lab serves our Pre-K through 5th grade through cross-curricular lessons that make connections between school subjects in a fun and engaging way. Students take a hands-on approach to solving problems with real-life implications.

Library

FPD’s dedicated Elementary Librarian coordinates lessons with grade-level teachers so students can read books that focus on what they’re studying in class. Students visit the library once a week, starting at 3K, and can check out books starting in kindergarten.

I can’t wait to go to school each day to learn! I love how in our classroom we get to write, draw pictures, and learn bible stories. All of the teachers are so great and make learning fun. Kyra Hubbard  Elementary School

Educating the Whole Child

At FPD, we believe true education nurtures the whole child—academically, spiritually, emotionally, and mentally. With small class sizes and expert faculty, students thrive in a supportive environment grounded in biblical principles. Our teachers challenge students to explore their potential, solve meaningful problems, and cultivate their God-given talents, equipping them for a life of purpose and impact.
