      <image:title>Programs - The Adolescent Program</image:title>
      <image:caption>Ages 12 to 16+ The adolescent program is the culmination of the Montessori experience. Adolescence is a period of important and often rapid social development. It is marked by self-concern, self-assessment, and increased critical thinking. As such, our program is responsive to the adolescent’s heightened need for personal dignity, social justice, and a sense of belonging.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Programs - Casa</image:title>
      <image:caption>Ages three to six The stage from birth to six-years-old is a period of creative construction. Aided by what Dr. Montessori called the absorbent mind, children of this age are able to take in their environments without prejudice, will, or concerted effort. Our teachers help students refine their motor skills, language, and communication as they become more agile, social, and verbal in this stage.</image:caption>
