Elementary TK-5
At KDA, our young scholars are guided by excellent educators
to reach their full potential. KDA has an academic focus
on integration of the common core into our already rich
academic program. We are proud to implement the
Blended Learning program, which allows students to use
technology to strengthen and expand their knowledge base,
as well as gives teachers an opportunity to use methods
which are highly engaging for all learners. A school garden
enriches our science and health programs. Our primary
students participate in the Footsteps to Brillance technology
program, and our girls have opportunities to participate in
the TechBridge enrichment program. We offer before and
afterschool interventions in Language Arts. Our families
are welcomed to adult classes in English, GED preparation,
and parenting. We continue to focus on providing a strong,
supportive, and skillfully cared for learning environment for
the children of Oakland.
