Broadalbin-Perth Elementary School (pre-K through grade 6)

Academic programs at the elementary school, which includes prekindergarten through grade 6, reinforce and build foundational skills and provide students with gradually increasing academic challenges while taking into account individual student learning needs.

Teachers and students in grades 4-6 take a cross-curricular approach to teaching and learning. For instance, English language arts classes include books on social studies and science topics, so students touch on multiple curricula throughout the day. Read more about B-P Elementary School academics.
