Middle School (Grades 6-8)

In our Middle School program, our students broaden and deepen their academic knowledge and continue to build on their critical thinking skills. Although some elements have a traditional middle school feel, many have been altered to align with our Montessori philosophy.

What Students Say About CMCS

My favorite thing about this school is the environment. Students have a lot of freedom, but the classrooms are still very homey and comfortable. I get the best of both worlds, the chance to be independent but also the support of friendly teachers when I struggled.
Bella P.
Here at CMCS, the teachers check in on the students and actually take the time to establish a friendly and caring relationship with the kids. This creates a beautiful, personal bond between the teachers and students, which is part of what makes CMCS so special to me.
