The Unitarian Montessori School community embodies a rich diversity of culture.
We nurture appreciation and awareness of differences. Our emphasis on peace, its symbols and possibilities, are core to the curriculum.
We are privileged to have a seasoned staff who provide an environment for the children to blossom.
Each child is appreciated and nurtured with respect and tender loving care.
The result is a community of happy, songful children. The Unitarian Montessori provides a rich diversity of programs to stimulate growth in a variety of areas.
All of the material that we cover is specific to each age group.
From the toddler group up to the primary pre-schoolers. We also have a summer camp for those who wish to spend their summer at Montessori.
