Our attentive teachers regularly make written observation of children's proficiency in the objectives of Indiana Early Learning Standards. Our sites employ a variety of assessment tools to document student achievement and to guide teachers to individualize their approach to meet each child's needs.

We understand the diverse needs of our families necessitate flexibility in the practice of dropping off and picking up children. We ask each famiy to identify a preestablished window of time and to take care to notify the office of any changes that may arise on a given day. Only pre-approved family and friends may enter past our secure entrance to pick up a child. If a child is not onsite by 9am, it is important for parents to notify our staff if the child will arrive before noon to ensure a lunch is prepared. Late pickup will will result in an additional one-time fee.

We educated from a Christian worldview, while honoring and respecting a wide variety of backgrounds and beliefs. Our teachers present historically based stories from the Bible and teachings of Jesus that promote values such as love, forgiveness, generosity, kindness, humility, patience, and unity. Students are invited to participate in prayer as they feel comfortable.

As a ministry center of River City Church, STEAM Academy goes above and beyond and has been designated an Indiana Paths to Quality Level Three facility. Read more about Paths to Quality here.
