Waterville Valley Elementary School Curriculum
As a small school spanning nine grades, WVES has a unique multi-age classroom environment. The classes are divide into three groups: Kindergarten through Second Grade, Third through Fifth Grade, and Sixth through Eighth Grade.
Mathematics and reading are grouped by students' level. Social studies and science are taught on a rotating annual basis within the class groups to ensure that all students are exposed to required coursework over a three-year period.
Waterville Valley Elementary School participates in an innovative science curriculum offered by the Rey Center, Curious School Kids.
WVES enjoys relatively small class sizes, and students receive a great deal of individual attention. It is in many ways an ideal learning environment.

Monthly Meeting
WVES has a wonderful tradition: a monthly morning meeting, open to parents and friends, on the last Friday of each month. All students participate in presentations, performances, and more -- a special kind of experience that makes WVES graduates remarkably poised and confident in public speaking situations.
