Lower & Upper Elementary
Ages 6 – 12
The student’s Montessori education does not end after the work in our Children’s House classroom is completed – in fact, it is really just beginning. CMA’s Elementary classrooms are designed to maximize independent learning and exploration. The curriculum allows each child to advance in all levels by directing the child’s curiosity and sensitivity through each subject area.
The Montessori Classroom
One of the unique advantages in the Montessori classroom is the encouragement given to children to expand their horizons and explore new dimensions beyond the immediate learning situation.
Cosmic Education
Cosmic Education is a cornerstone of the Montessori Philosophy. It is an overall approach to education that involves helping children develop an awareness that everything in the universe is connected and interdependent and forms a harmonious whole and that they themselves are part of and contribute to that whole.
Hands-on Materials
Paper and pencil have merit, but when combined with concrete learning materials and an unlimited ceiling, the child reaps the greatest benefit – meeting his or her own need for understanding.
Hands-on Experiences
As the student progresses through each Montessori level, they increase their opportunities for real-life experiences. Field trips are an essential part of the Montessori experience, and all ages participate.
Our school day begins at 8:30am and ends at 3:30pm, Monday through Friday.
Our Extended Day Program is offered from 3:30pm-5:30pm, Monday through Friday.
