Classrooms / Staff / Enrichments
Lower Elementary Classroom
- Ms. Edith
- Ms. Minne
- Ms. Marisela
In this classroom, children engage in hands-on, child-centered learning. The Montessori approach emphasizes independence, collaboration, and exploration, allowing students to learn at their own pace and according to their interests. The classroom is designed to foster a love of learning and build foundational skills, creating a strong academic foundation that prepares them for future growth.
Upper Elementary Classroom
Our Upper Elementary classroom is forย 3rd,ย 4th, andย 5th gradeย students, continuing with the Montessori philosophy under the guidance of:
- Ms. Laura
- Ms. El
Students in the Upper Elementary classroom are encouraged to take on more responsibility for their learning while further developing critical thinking skills. With a focus on collaboration, independent work, and personalized learning, this classroom continues to build strong academic foundations and emotional intelligence, setting the stage for their transition to Middle School.
Middle School Classroom
Our Middle School classroom servesย 6th,ย 7th, andย 8th gradeย students, guided by:
- Mr. Lewis
- Ms. Marie Anne
- Ms. Brenda
While continuing with the Montessori approach, Middle School students transition into changing classes to prepare them for the structure of high school. Students move from one period to the next, learning from different teachers who specialize in various areas. This allows students to experience a more traditional academic schedule, providing them with the skills to manage time, prioritize tasks, and collaborate across disciplines. The focus remains on independent learning, responsibility, and leadership, ensuring students are well-prepared for the challenges of high school.
