We are a small, non-profit, independent Montessori school that promotes strong academic and critical thinking skills, encourages our students to contribute to the community and the world, helps our students develop as fair-minded, compassionate leaders, and supports their development in becoming self-directed decision makers. This happens through the guidance of teachers who care deeply about their students, strong family connections and partnership, and a sincere belief in the capacity of all children.
We are a small, non-profit, independent Montessori school that
is focused on preparing students to navigate middle and high school
with strong academic, critical thinking, leadership, community
service, and decision-making skills. . For over 30 years, our
students have experienced learning in a compassionate and
stimulating environment, respectful of individual learning styles
and within a community of friends. Our Montessori program is a
mixed-age, hands-on model with small teacher to student ratios and
a collegial and nurturing atmosphere. The Montessori curriculum
provides a platform for genuine mastery of math, language arts, the
social and natural sciences as well as art, music, and physical
education. Children also earn the freedom to make lots of choices
within that structure and participate in caring for the indoor and
outdoor class environments. All of our students, ages 3-12, study
Spanish, environmental education, music, physical education, and
engage in outdoor play daily. Our music teacher also offers
private, on-site music lessons for children after school. We have
before and aftercare programs and a dynamic parent education
program.
