How Will the Enrichment Program Benefit Your Students?
Students enrolled in Enlightium’s Enrichment Program:
- Meet in-person with certified Enlightium Academy instructors and other Enlightium students in the same grade level
- Delve deeper into the assigned curriculum
- Invest time in fun and interesting projects related to the curriculum
- Have fun learning about different drawing and art techniques
- Explore the Bible with devotionals most weeks of the school year
Enrichment students use their creativity, critical thinking, and knowledge they have learned to participate in a weekly enrichment activity. These activities will range from writing, to science experiments, to activities where students will employ knowledge from every subject in order to complete a task or project.
Enrichment Program Schedule 2021-2022
Students meet at 4224 E. Fourth Ave, Spokane, Washington, 99202. The Enrichment Program follows the regular school calendar.
On Enrichment days, Enlightium provides a computer workstation for students in grades 3-12, while students in grades 1-2 work from their textbooks. Students should arrive by 9 am and bring their Bible, notebooks, pencils, and pens. Students also need to bring their own snacks and a bottle of water, as meals are not provided.
