In our two-year, Middle School program, 12 to 14-year-old adolescents builds on a strong Montessori foundation through practical work in the classroom and the community. They learn to set challenging goals and become masters of their own time in preparation for success in high school. People who encounter St. Joseph Montessori students frequently remark that there is a distinct difference in their ability to assume responsibility and leadership, communicate well, think insightfully, and be resilient. These are the trademarks of a Montessori young adult.
