Our elementary program is truly unique: a mixed-aged Montessori community, serving first through sixth grade Elementary students whom are learning alongside one another in a rich social environment. The Montessori approach offers highly individualized lessons and extended periods of concentrated work. Within that framework, we embed a sequence of classical academic content in the humanities and the sciences. Learn more about our approach to elementary education here.
