Academics at Nativity
The students are on a journey to become the persons God has called them to be. Nativity is a great place for that journey to take place. Through the academic program we offer, they develop the necessary skills. Through the opportunities we offer, they experience challenges that will call forth the best they have to offer. It takes place in the classroom, on the field, and in the community and it's rooted in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.Recognized by the United States Department of Education as a National Blue Ribbon School, Nativity offers a program not found in many elementary schools.
