Five programs for middle and high school learners. Each one offers a different balance of live instruction, location and Home Guide involvement.
Every program shares the same Montessori approach to adolescence: purposeful work, growing independence and a strong partnership with families.
A parent-directed K–12 pathway with individualized work plans, organized learning resources, portfolio guidance, and support for your Home Guide. Your family sets the daily learning rhythm.
Choose one, two, or three live academic subjects. Standard offers focused Guide-led classes; Extended Guided adds a Foundations & Guided Discovery period and more supported application time. Families guide learning outside selected classes.
A comprehensive five-day online school experience with live Guide-led learning in five core subjects, Montessori Essentials, independent practice, and ongoing academic guidance. Choose Standard or Extended Guided.
Small, in-person Montessori learning communities with two-, three-, or five-day schedules and half-day or full-day options. Placement, availability, and Family Investment vary by location.
Individualized, in-person academic guidance tailored to your learner’s goals. Meet with an educator at your home, a library, a community center, or another mutually agreed location. Appointments are subject to availability.
Who leads learning, where it happens, the schedule and the choices within each program.
