Lower School
At Montverde Academy Lower School, we aim to prepare students not only for academic success but also for future leadership roles. Education has evolved over the past two decades with the integration of technology, changing the role of the teacher. Today, teachers are coaches and facilitators, guiding students in their pursuit of knowledge, as both students and adults can easily access information.
Four Keys Skills of Lower School
To prepare students for the future, educational research highlights four key skills:
- Collaboration and teamwork
- Creativity and imagination
- Critical thinking
- Problem-solving
At Montverde Academy, we provide opportunities for students to practice and develop these skills as they explore and learn. Beyond academics, we focus on building character and a sense of community, emphasizing core values like Respect, Responsibility, Trustworthiness, Fairness, Caring, and Citizenship.
We also celebrate diversity, helping students understand and appreciate cultural, religious, and racial differences. With students from around the world, our Lower School offers unique opportunities for students to learn about the global community around them.
