- School Motto: 'Free the child's potential, and you will transform him into the world.' --Dr. Maria Montessori
- Our classes meet five days a week following the public school calendar.
- The half-day program meets from 8:30 a.m. until 12:30 a.m.; school-day program meets until 3:30 p.m; full-day program meets until 5:30pm.
- Our primary goal is to cultivate each child's natural desire to learn.
