At La Prima Casa Montessori, we’ve always believed our mission is to prepare children for life – not just the next grade level.
As the world changes, education must evolve too.
That’s why we’re excited to introduce an enhanced 4th & 5th Grade Upper Elementary Program that combines the best of Montessori with the skills students need to thrive in middle school and beyond.
Montessori Foundation. Future-Focused Learning. Proudly Accredited.
LPC Upper Elementary students will continue to develop the independence, confidence, curiosity, and love of learning that Montessori is known for, while gaining additional valuable academic skills, including:
📚 Workbook practice to reinforce learning
💻 Computer research & digital literacy
✍️ Stronger writing and organizational skills
🧠 Advanced critical thinking & problem solving
📝 Preparation for standardized testing
🎯 Executive functioning, study habits & time management
This isn’t about leaving Montessori behind. It’s about embracing Dr. Maria Montessori’s vision of preparing the child for the world they will enter.We’re also proud to announce that La Prima Casa Montessori has completed its third accreditation by the Florida Council of Independent Schools (FCIS)! This prestigious accreditation recognizes schools that meet rigorous standards for academic excellence, leadership, student support, and continuous improvement, giving families added confidence in the quality of education we provide.
Our goal is simple: to help every Elementary student transition to middle school with confidence while preserving the joy of learning that makes Montessori so special.
