Elementary Division,
Grades Pre-K to 4

Our Pre-K through fourth-grade classes at SciCore Academy in Hightstown, New Jersey, are designed for children of exceptional ability and talents. Students participate in an advanced elementary curriculum in language arts, geography and world civilizations, fine arts, mathematics, and natural sciences. With our small class sizes, bright students like yours are able to soar academically, without bounds.

Helping Bright Children Grow

We feel that bright children need a place to grow intellectually, where they are not hindered in their development. As future creators and leaders, such children are a special gift to society and need to be nurtured and challenged. This program is not for everyone. Students must be above grade level in achievement to be admitted. Applicants must take and pass an entrance examination and be able to read and comprehend well above traditional grade level expectations.

Class Times

Classes run the full day Monday to Friday, from 8:25 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. from September to June. Teachers are trained in techniques which maximize individual attention whereby students advance at a rate matching their interests and abilities. If you think your child will benefit from this program and would like to know more, please contact Dr. Arthur T. Poulos at (609) 448-8950.
