The Middle School at Hamilton Park Montessori School is developed in accord with Montessori’s views on adolescents and learning. From within the structure of a warm community, the students are supported and encouraged to reach out, intellectually, emotionally, and physically, to the wider world and also to reach deeper into themselves. The curriculum includes a STEM component integrating science, technology, and mathematics, as well as a humanities strand that establishes links between history, current events, literature, critical reading and writing. The curriculum includes regular trips, often planned by the students, to do research and gather information.
