Intermediate
While rooted in the Montessori philosophy, our intermediate program blends structure and independence—offering students a dynamic and purposeful transition into more progressive academic structure.
Class sizes remain small with a maximum of 18 students per teacher, ensuring each student receives personalized attention and space to thrive.
Technology
Technology plays an integral role in the Cornerstone intermediate program. Each student is provided with their own MacBook, which is used daily across all core subjects: Mathematics, Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, Current Events, French, Health, and occasionally Art.
Students become proficient in a range of digital tools and platforms including Google Classroom, Canva, Google Slides, Google Sheets, Duolingo, Khan Academy, and typing programs. They regularly complete research-based assignments and are taught how to gather and cite credible information for essays, presentations, and projects. With access to their Google accounts at home, students can continue their learning beyond the classroom, receive timely feedback from teachers, and develop strong digital literacy skills.
Daily homework is assigned to reinforce concepts learned in class and to promote consistent study habits. For students who demonstrate a high level of academic achievement, we offer enrichment opportunities that go beyond the standard curriculum, encouraging deeper thinking and creative exploration.
