Ivy League Montessori School's goal is to provide as much parental convenience as possible.
It is our desire that when the work day is finished, a parent's evening focuses on nurturing their family, to help make this possible, we offer optional conveniences such as, on sight tutoring, homework monitoring, dance classes, music lessons and more.
To achieve the mission, the program, through effective board and staff leadership, will provide a safe nurturing and stimulating environment based on good morals, ethics, and values for the programming and education of children with the respect for diverse family cultures.
