The Curriculum
Specializing In Scientific Methodology
At Laniakea Montessori School, our curriculum is developed to teach children to view the world from a scientific perspective. We provide students with a well-rounded pre-K through 10th grade education by emphasizing the importance of collaborative work across age groups, self-motivated learning, and interdisciplinary understanding.
- Self-Directed Study
By allowing students to guide their own curriculum, Laniakea encourages them to develop a positive impression of learning. This approach fosters critical thinking, independence, and resourcefulness without the added stress of grades and deadlines. - Multi-Age Grouping
At Laniakea Montessori School, children are grouped according to their stage of development rather than their traditional grade level. Multi-age grouping removes the limitations that conventional education places on children. As such, children always have peers to look up to and to tutor, improving retention, social skills, and intrinsic motivation. - Global Understanding
Montessori children are educated about the interconnectedness of history, international culture, and the world around them from an early age. This contextual understanding encourages children to be respectful, curious, and responsible members of society.
