non-denominational Montessori education in a respectful, and caring
environment. Our Lancaster City Campus is located in a
light-filled, historic space in Lancaster City. Our students range
from toddlers to middle school age, coming from all parts of
Lancaster County and beyond. Students enjoy our natural playground
which was specifically designed to mimic nature. Close to home, our

families who seek an excellent, non-denominational, educational
opportunity in a child-centered, nurturing environment. We opened
in September 1990 with 64 students. Today we enroll over 227
students, infants through 8th grade, across two campuses. This
extraordinary growth has been possible because of the enthusiasm,
dedication, trust, positive attitude, and hard work ofthe

continue to serve the needs of our community, enabling our students
access to Montessori excellence.
