Our Curriculum
Crestview follows an American curriculum: play and discovery in preschool, strong subjects in elementary, and one set of School-Wide Learning Outcomes that grows with your child.
One school, two stages


Play-based and theme-based
Learning is hands-on, exploratory and developmentally appropriate. It builds curiosity, language, social skills, and early literacy and numeracy. Children learn through Learning Experiences, and every day begins with Discovery Hubs.
How we know how your child is doing: ongoing observation, progress notes, the daily ALMA diary, and a semester report with SLO ratings.


Subject-based and standards-aligned
Our American-curriculum elementary program is aligned with the Common Core State Standards, California State Standards and the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), together with the Thai Basic Education Curriculum requirements.
How we know how your child is doing: quizzes, projects and end-of-semester exams. Report cards show subject grades, teacher comments, SLO ratings and attendance.

Preschool children are not given grades. Units are the same across the four levels; the big questions and the activities grow with the child.
Core learning
Language and Literacy
Listening, speaking, storytelling, early reading of known words and early writing, in a fully English environment.
Word Work and Phonics
Children learn that letters stand for sounds and that sounds blend into words, starting with listening and ending in Kindergarten with reading and writing simple words.
Writing
Writing grows slowly from marks to words, from scribbling and finger-painting to tracing letters and a first short sentence.
Numeracy
Number sense through real objects: counting, comparing, sorting, patterns, shapes and simple measuring.
STEM
Curiosity first: children use their senses, notice what happens, predict and tell what they found.
Social-Emotional Learning
Children learn to know their feelings, calm down, make friends, take turns and solve problems kindly. Each unit highlights a virtue.
Thai Language and Culture
Every child learns to greet, speak and show respect in Thai ways, and school themes connect to Thai festivals and the heritage of Lopburi.
Mandarin Chinese
An early, playful start in a third language through greetings, songs, counting and picture words linked to each unit.
