ATLANTIC MONTESSORI CHARTER SCHOOL

ATLANTIC MONTESSORI CHARTER SCHOOL is a Title I public charter elementary school that is part of the BROWARD school district, located in PEMBROKE PINES, FL with about 123 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 3rd Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 9 teachers, ATLANTIC MONTESSORI CHARTER SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 13:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

ATLANTIC MONTESSORI CHARTER SCHOOL, located on Pines Boulevard in Pembroke Pines, Florida, is a tuition-free public charter school that provides an alternative educational model based on the Montessori philosophy. Catering to students in the primary through elementary grades, the school focuses on fostering independence, self-motivation, and a love for learning. The curriculum is designed to be child-centered, utilizing specialized hands-on learning materials and multi-age classrooms to allow students to progress at their own pace while developing both academic and social skills.

As a charter institution, the school operates under a charter contract with the local school district while maintaining a unique identity centered on the Montessori method. It emphasizes a structured yet flexible environment that encourages critical thinking, peer collaboration, and individualized instruction. By balancing traditional academic standards with the core principles of Dr. Maria Montessori—such as respect for the child and experiential learning—the school aims to provide a holistic educational experience that prepares students for future academic success and lifelong personal growth.
