Montessori is an established, innovative, collaborative, hands-on learning and problem solving methodology, which complements our STEM curriculum.


STEM is a growing movement in education. Montessori and STEM based learning are very similar. It is based on the idea of four specific disciplines — science, technology, engineering, and mathematics as an interdisciplinary and applied approach.

Engaging Students with Montessori STEM

Student engagement is at the forefront of our Montessori classrooms. Beginning in our preschool environment, students learn the fundamental rules of math and science through discovery, manipulation of instructive materials, and problem solving with peers. The work engages the senses and ensures understanding of concepts, not just memorization of facts and figures!


STEM is integrated into our Montessori program based on real-world applications. Each campus has a STEM lab in which students conduct experiments, learn to code, explore the vast expanse of space, and so much more!
