Elementary Program Overview: Building an Education
Aided by the challenging Montessori materials, your capable and inquisitive child will link rapidly developing skills in math and language with a whole new realm of knowledge, including history, earth and physical sciences, physical education, and the arts. The elementary years are a special time, when intellect merges with wonder, discovery joins discipline, and children spontaneously reach new and important understandings about themselves and the world. These are the learning tools and life skills that will sustain your child as an adult and a responsible guardian of our future.

“My daughter has gained so much confidence at Mountain Shadows. She’s discovered how much fun learning is and wants to learn all the time. She’s become an independent little girl who takes pride in her work at school, as well as her contributions to family and home. ”
