Programs

Montessori Renaissance Academy is currently enrolling toddlers (age 16 months and older) through 8th grade.

Our classrooms are mixed-age, with a three-year grouping of students in Children's House, grades 1-3 in an Elementary 1 classroom, grades 4-6 in an Elementary 2 classroom, and grades 7 & 8 in a Middle School classroom. This age grouping follows the Montessori philosophy, and allows for younger children to learn from the older children. In turn, the older children develop confidence and leadership skills through being a role mode.

An Individualized Approach

Toddler Through 8th Grade

At Montessori Renaissance Academy, we take an individualized approach to education, setting up each unique child for a lifelong love of learning. Through the Montessori Method, we let the children lead as we guide through their education. 

Our vision is educating the whole child, from toddler to high school graduate, preparing them to engage as global citizens. Learn a bit about each level we serve in this short video.

Follow The Child

Lessons meet each child where they are. Freedom of choice within clear limits builds intrinsic motivation and a genuine love of learning.

Prepared Environment

Calm, orderly classrooms and beautiful hands-on materials invite concentration, independence, and care for self, others, and the space.

Multi-Age Classrooms

Three-year groupings let children learn from peers, mentor younger students, and revisit concepts until they are truly mastered.
