PRIMARY PROGRAM

Our Children's House serves 2 1/2 to 6 year olds in an intimate, center based program. We provide students with a warm and inviting environment that introduces them to multiple disciplines in the classroom. This program brings together children in preschool through Kindergarten, allowing each child to develop naturally at his or her own pace. The classroom provides opportunities for interaction, problem solving, and peer-to-peer learning.

The third, or Kindergarten, year is one of completion in the Montessori Children’s House.  In this year, students begin to reach internal mastery of their work, and demonstrating great competence.  They also have the opportunity to be leaders in the classroom, mentoring their peers by reading, teaching concepts, or helping to tie shoes.

“An education capable of saving humanity is no small undertaking; it involves the spiritual development of man, the enhancement of his value as an individual, and the preparation of young people to understand the times in which they live.”
