Elementary Program (Grades 1–5)
Our elementary program blends rigorous academics with meaningful, real-world learning experiences. Students are encouraged to ask questions, seek out answers, and see the connections between subjects.
The elementary curriculum includes:

Mathematics: concrete Montessori materials leading to strong abstract understanding
Science: hands-on experiments, observation, and research projects
Cultural studies: geography, history, world cultures, and global awareness
Practical skills: organization, time management, and collaborative work
