The Lower School of St. Stephen's & St. Agnes is a positive, vibrant community. There is great support of and energy around many different areas of school life inside and outside of the classroom. The Lower School community is a reflective and innovative one where teachers are encouraged and empowered to try new approaches and techniques. Recent areas of focus include design thinking (by students and faculty), technology integration (we are 1:1 in grades 2-5), enhancing mathematics instruction (through the adoption of Singapore Math- Math in Focus and other means), the introduction of a new phonics program, and integrating the teaching of non-cognitive skills (flexibility, empathy, optimism, perseverance) into the curriculum. The incoming Lower School Director will play a pivotal role in not only implementing these initiatives, but also developing a vision that will move the division forward for years to come.
