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.
