Elementary (grades 1-5)



Our Elementary class for 1st through 5th grades offers a rich, accelerated curriculum that meets and exceeds state and local standards. Subject areas include reading, writing, math, science, history, Spanish, music, art, and physical education. We also have piano class, chorus, field trips, and outdoor education. We offer the complete Montessori curriculum, highly-qualified Montessori teachers, and fully-equipped classrooms. We are passionately committed to providing the very best for our students at affordable rates for parents.
We give our students the means to develop their intellect, to practice critical-thinking skills, and to master abstract concepts. They can explore their passions and interests and pursue accelerated study in any area. They can take time to master skills and concepts before moving on to the next level. We fulfill their need to know, to learn more, and to seek the answers to big questions. Our students also learn valuable life lessons and develop important social and personal skills. Our students have made successful transitions to both public and private schools, including accelerated programs, "gifted and talented" programs, and early admission to higher grades.
To qualify for our Elementary class: The student should be 6 years old by December 31, the student must be academically and emotionally ready for an Elementary class, and it is preferable, but not required, that the student previously attended a Montessori program.
