She also worked as an adjunct, graduate assistant, and was the Interim Montessori Program Director at Barry University shortly before her current role as principal of our school.

Curriculum Director
Parent Liasion
Hello Lynx Family!
My name is Olmary Rodriguez and I am the Curriculum Director and Parent liaison at SBMCS. My role as the Curriculum Director in SBMCS is to support the staff and teachers as well as students, and parents in navigating and truly applying the academic Montessori aligned curriculum requirements. It is my goal to ensure that our students have the best opportunity to reach their academic success in a safe and positive environment nurtured through our Montessori philosophy and school mission. As the parent liaison I am able to focus on one of the key elements in student’s success, which is parent involvement and community. Together we focus on integrating new elements to the school and bringing forth concerns, giving voice to those that we intend to serve at SBMCS, our students and their parents. I have the utmost gratitude and affection for the Lynx family, and I am honored to be part of such a great community. I cannot wait to see all we will accomplish this 2023-2024 school year.
Go Lynx!

in detail and recognized that many of its objectives coincide with my idea of education. Pleasure and learning must go hand in hand. Support respect for children and their ability to learn... help children reach their potential as human beings; My position as the Student Services Coordinator includes a variety of roles and responsibilities. I manage many of what is “student data” from registration, attendance, to enrollments and processing. I love and enjoy working with children and interacting with parents to help our school achieve better results each year.
