Our Curriculum

St. Mark’s Ark is proud to implement a comprehensive, multi-age, and research-based curriculum called Pinnacle. Pinnacle uses developmentally appropriate programs and activities to engage children of all ages from 0-5 years old. Equally important, Pinnacle is a faith-based curriculum, supplementing weekly themes and learning objectives with faith-based activities.
