General Information:

To help families experience what it’s like to learn with us and determine if we’re the right fit, we ask for a one-semester commitment. New classes and times will continue to be added throughout the year to accommodate year-round enrollment.

Our Montessori content is designed to repeat and build throughout the school year, offering follow-up lessons to ensure mastery of topics before progressing. This supportive environment allows students joining mid-class to adjust quickly and thrive through individualized instruction and collaborative activities.

Who Are Our Guides?

Our program is led by a diverse team of Quantum Montessori Guides & Success Coaches, including certified Montessori educators, special education specialists, yoga practitioners, and SEL experts. The team also includes a nationally certified school psychologist, ensuring that students with diverse learning needs receive comprehensive support. This allows us to offer an individualized learning experience that goes beyond academics, nurturing each student’s holistic development.

Additional Features:

• STEAM Enrichments: Students can participate in live, engaging STEAM classes, including Life Skills, Yoga & Mindfulness, Creative Expression, Critical Thinking, and Spanish Immersion.
• Leadership & Mentorship: High school students develop leadership skills through mentoring younger peers and engaging in Student Council activities.
• Service & Community Engagement: Students contribute to school-wide initiatives and community service projects, developing personal growth and collaborative skills.
• Customized Learning Plans: A two-week assessment period helps us design personalized learning plans for each student, ensuring their education aligns with their interests and goals.

Important Information for New Students:
All new students will begin classes 30 days after enrollment. The first 30 days will serve as a period of assessment, during which our Montessori Guides and Success Coaches will evaluate each student’s current academic standing, learning preferences, and personal interests. This assessment period helps us create a personalized learning plan tailored to each student’s needs and goals. During this time, students will also participate in introductory lessons, SEL activities, and become familiar with the online learning environment.

This approach ensures a smooth transition into the program and allows us to provide the most supportive and enriching learning experience possible.
