About Our School
Academic Program


Bald Creek Elementary uses many measures of academic progress, including
  • Classroom Teacher Observation
  • Unit Skills Assessments
  • Accelerated Reading Program
  • Star Reading Program
  • Star Math Program
  • Accelerated Math Program
  • Orchard
  • Study Island
  • Mid-Term Progress Reports
  • End of Grade Assessments
These assessments and reports are key to our overall focus and goals.

Bald Creek’s thrust is on literacy and math with the integration of social studies and the sciences.  Instruction is based on knowing students on a personal basis, one-on-one evaluation, assessing student work, and planning for the classroom and teaching.  Additional instructional opportunities are provided through our Title I Program, tutors, and community volunteers.

At Bald Creek, we promote a warm and welcoming climate of  lifelong learning. We invite you to visit and observe a day in the life of our learners. Through continuing professional higher education and certifications and staff development, our faculty strives to meet the needs of all students.  We do this while fostering a nurturing environment where children feel safe, happy, successful, and confident.
