Montessori is a method of education that is based on hands-on and collaborative learning. In our Montessori blended classrooms children make creative choices in their learning with both State and Montessori Certified teachers helping guide the process.

As our program expands each year, we value the importance of exposing our students to various cultures, places, scientific observations and travel opportunities. This past year, our 5th grade class spent a week in Bocas del Toro, Panama to participate in biological studies at the Institute of Tropical Ecology and Conservation.

Ocean Studies uses place based education to engage students in learning that allows discovery, inquiry, and collaboration. Students work in the unique and beautiful Florida Keys environment to discover connections between the real world and Florida State Standards specifically in the area of marine science.
