Why Choose St. Matthew’s

Our building may be historic, but the education in our classrooms is state-of-the-art. St. Matthew’s is committed to academic excellence and provides teachers with the tools necessary to achieve great results.

At St. Matthew’s School that means:

• Updated textbooks & curriculums
  The school has recently updated curriculums in Mathematics, Language Arts, Science, Social Studies, Technology and Music with plans to add Art and Spanish over the next two years.
• Improved computer technology
  The school has a fully functional, server based computer lab and this year added a mobile computer lab that can be moved into any classroom at any time.
• Cutting edge assessment systems
  St. Matthew’s was selected to be a pilot school for a powerful, new assessment program called Learnia that gives teachers immediate progress reports that allow them to target instruction efficiently and effectively.

  All teachers are fully trained and prepared to use a variety of instructional practices to accommodate varying learning styles and needs.
