Inglewood Elementary School

Calvary Baptist School in Lansdale teaches students from three-year-old preschool through 12th grade on one campus, with the Bible taught daily as the foundation for every other subject. Our elementary grades build on phonics, Saxon Math, grammar, spelling, penmanship and reading comprehension using Abeka, BJU Press and Positive Action materials. Weekly specials include library, art, computers, Spanish and STEM, with physical education and music twice a week and chapel once a week. Older students can take Honors and AP courses. Our ACCESS program serves students in kindergarten through 12th grade who need remedial support to succeed in a traditional classroom, using diagnostic tools and individualized teaching on a schedule set by program instructors. Families can also request psychological and academic evaluations through the Montgomery County Intermediate Unit. Students can join elementary and middle school bands, choirs from 6th grade up, theater, private music lessons and middle school and varsity soccer, volleyball and basketball. Foundations Christian Preschool offers flexible K3 schedules, with care available between 6:30 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., and our seven-week summer day camp serves ages 3 through 6th grade with lunch and pool trips.

Our Gresh Center on Forty Foot Road is one of three Easterseals Southeastern Pennsylvania sites that run an Approved Private School and a preschool Early Intervention program. The Approved Private School serves children ages 2 to 8 with multiple or significant disabilities, including autism, cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, and neurological impairment, who are referred by their Intermediate Unit or school district when a district program cannot meet their needs. Each child starts with an evaluation by staff from several disciplines, and the results shape an Individualized Education Program that we review each year. A teacher leads each classroom with instructional assistants and specialists in occupational, physical, speech, vision, and hearing therapy, audiology, nursing, social work, music therapy, and assistive technology. Our school calendar runs 180 classroom days over 10 months, with full-day sessions four to five times a week. Our Early Intervention classrooms serve children ages 3 to 5 with developmental delays who are referred by an Intermediate Unit. Each classroom follows a regular preschool curriculum adapted for typical children and children with special needs, with the goal of a smooth move into a school-age placement.

Knapp Elementary School is a North Penn School District elementary school on Knapp Road in Lansdale, serving children from kindergarten through sixth grade.

Our Home and School Association organizes the Book Fair, the Holiday Shop, the yearbook and sixth grade activities, and our Cultural Proficiency and Equity Task Force brings parents and teachers together with the principal each month. District buses serve our attendance area, and the North Penn Extended School Care program provides before and after school care for elementary students.
