Toddler Program
|
| |
| The toddler community is a small group of children of ages 6 months to 3 years. It is a period characterized by the need to explore everything, move and develop large motor coordination and strength. The classroom is carefully prepared to meet the unique needs of this age. Our Montessori trained toddler teachers are totally familiar with the stages of development for this age group. They have an extensive list of activities and developmentally appropriate educational materials. The main focus includes language and motor development, assisting the child in developing self-help skills (including toileting), movement, art and music. |

Primary and Kindergarten Program
|
| |
| Children 3-6 years old form the classroom community in our primary program. This program provides a unique three-year cycle of learning. The multi-aged classrooms provide a wealth of positive educational experiences for children. Children are inspired by the work of others. Very young children learn quickly by simply observing others at work. The older children become responsible role models for the younger children. The little ones instill a sense of nurturing in the older children. |

All Day Montessori
|
| |
| We also offer all-day Montessori program from 7:30Am- 6:00 PM.
Many research studies indicate that young children need a higher level of consistency and order in their routine. All-Day Montessori program offers a familiar environment, a consistent community of children and trained staff through out the day. The extended hours allow for a more relaxed pace with a greater exploration of the Montessori activities and a more home-like environment. Montessori work and lessons are available through out the core school day. The staff includes full time Montessori certified teacher and two trained assistants. There is a great sense of community among the all-day children and this extends to their families.
