Welcome to Grade 5 with Mrs. Cynthia DuBois Kenny! I have been a Catholic school teacher for 40+ years. My three sons and I are all graduates of St. Nicholas School. In addition to the standard 5th grade topics, I also teach math to our 6th graders.
The math curriculum used by the school is that of the Archdiocese of Newark's Schools Office. The Archdiocese uses a curriculum that is carefully evaluated and mapped from Kindergarten through high school to ensure all topics are taught in a smooth progression that challenges all students. Our curriculum meets or exceeds the NJ Standards Student Learning Standards.

All students work online at IXL.com to sharpen Math, Science, Social Studies and Language Arts skills throughout the year (September through August)!
All students participate in one or more service projects each year, serving a diversity of causes: seniors, impoverished children, supporting our missionaries, cancer charities, animal charities, and many others. Taken altogether, the total experience delivers on our school mission: To embrace, nurture, and educate all God's children preparing them for lives of service and leadership rooted in the Gospel values of faith, hope, and love.
