Timmerman School coat of armsAcademics

The first step on the road to success.

Timmerman blends traditional and modern teaching methods across literacy, writing, math, science, history, geography, language, library, and STEAM.

Overview

Academic work is both foundational and forward-looking: proven classroom strategies alongside practical innovation.

Core subjects stay visible across the school story, from early reading and writing to math team strength, STEAM, science, history, and geography.

Literacy

Reading is treated as the most important early skill, with comprehensive reading programs from 5K through 8th grade and weekly library visits for kindergarten and elementary students.

Writing

Students grow from simple kindergarten-level sentences toward stronger expression, critical thinking, and middle school research papers.

Mathematics

Math supports problem solving, analytical thinking, creative reasoning, engineering, science readiness, and middle-school math team strength.

Science & STEAM

Classroom science is paired with hands-on STEAM focused on technology, engineering, and art for elementary and middle school students.

History & Geography

Students learn how societies, places, and histories shape human life so they can understand the world around them.
