Beyond KMS

Future Excellence

KMS students typically go on to excel in elementary school, middle school, high school, college, and beyond. There are many reasons for their success:

• Montessori students are usually ahead of students in traditional school in most if not all subjects.
• They are curious, self-motivated learners, who work hard to master new subjects.
• They have the maturity and social skills to manage new situations.
• They are organized and responsible and good at juggling multiple tasks and priorities.
