Meeting House Montessori is a preschool and elementary school serving the needs of children between the ages of 2.9-6 and 6-12 years, respectively.
We offer part day, full day, as well as before and after school care programs.
The mission of the Meeting House Montessori School is to prepare learning environments for children between the ages of 2.9 and 12 years that will aid in their natural development.
This includes creating environments where trust, respect, responsibility, community and cooperation can flourish; nurturing the social, emotional, and cognitive developmental needs for each child individually; respecting the rights of children as independent beings; providing a place where children are heard and given the opportunity for self-expression; creating challenging and safe environments; and giving each child the tools necessary for him or her to realize his or her full potential.
