LOWER
ELEMENTARY PROGRAM
KMA is devoted to developing the greatest minds beyond the preschool years. Montessori higher education activates your child's academic independence while also providing them social, emotional, and life skills needed beyond their early childhood education journey.
Lower Elementary Program Curriculum
Kindergarten - 2nd Grade
​
Hybrid Montessori Curriculum
KMA’s unique Lower Elementary curriculum is a hybrid approach of both traditional Montessori pedagogy and common core standard curriculum. Your child would be graced with the opportunity of obtaining twice as much knowledge, skills, and support in a low-pressure setting. Of course, the program is designed to help each individual child’s needs at their own pace but still upholds academic excellence and rules of a traditional public school. Our mission is to equip elementary students with the schools to not only navigate public school but feel confident as students and develop a love for learning.
We know that when some children start public school they tend to get lost and their personalities, identity, and interest for learning can be affected especially during the pressure of understanding and following rules in a new environment. That is why the KMA Lower Elementary Program is the bridge between the Montessori education environment and the public school environment.
