Montessori Connection East
About the School
- Montessori Connection East is a preschool servicing children ages 2-6 years old.
- We are dedicated to creating environments where children feel comfortable and are able to learn in a respectful, caring community.
- To realize this goal we have created Montessori school where children can be themselves in an atmosphere of freedom and responsibility.
- They are places where little ones will come joyfully and become absorbed and interested in their learning.
- We will help the children become creative, competent human beings who are fully aware of themselves, of others and of the world around them.
- Our goal is to create a love of learning, self-motivation, increased self-esteem, persistence, concentration and habits of inner discipline and order.
