The Willow Tree Montessori program combines the highest quality preschool care with a developmentally appropriate, educational curriculum based on the Montessori theory.
We hold as a priority, the development of children's confidence through planned, success-oriented learning experiences and activities.
We believe parents are our partners in the education and discipline of the child and therefore recognize the importance of communication between school and parents.
It is our goal to offer a safe, reliable environment which will help children to develop a good attitude toward learning.
Children are keen observers and learn from watching others then trying to do the same.
Our school provides a warm, nurturing environment that allows children to explore a variety of activities and hands-on materials that are structured to meet their needs.
Keeping in mind that children develop at different rates, we also offer learning experiences at a variety of levels, so that children can feel successful and confident.
Tuition is based number of hours/day and number of days/week attending. Contact our school for tuition rates.

School Notes
School Motto: A Small School with a Big Heart
Willow Tree School is a Montessori based preschool that provides
children with a safe, nurturing environment and the ability to
build a strong educational foundation. Through the guidance of
trained teachers and a carefully prepared environment, we cultivate
life skills, communication and self-confidence by our daily
activities. At Willow Tree School, children are seen as
individuals. Their individual learning styles are carefully
integrated into our lesson planning and activities are structured
to allow each child success. A variety of activities allows
children to explore and make choices based on their developmental
stages and personal interest. Willow Tree School is a place where
your child can discover his or her natural desire to learn and
experience the excitement that comes with being an active
participant in the learning process. A child that is internally
motivated by curiosity will carry with them the ability to continue
learning through his entire life.
