Elementary School
A rigorous academic program centered on the student, organized into thematic units and Project-Based Learning, helps in the constant acquisition of new skills and knowledge, enhances critical thinking, creativity, and empathy.
In the Elementary School, we ensure that students can make choices, express their opinions, and deepen their areas of interest.
At the end of each quarter, there is a celebration of learning, when children share what they have learned with other students or with their parents.

As someone who truly believes in the capability of all learners, I feel touched to see the attention and emphasis that OLM places on identifying the interests and needs of each of its students, as well as adopting effective support mechanisms to ensure that each learner can truly reach their full potential, not only academically but also, and equally important, socially and emotionally.
