Montessori Day School

Montessori Day School provides an open classroom educational setting that encourages children to explore and learn through active involvement with various materials. Each child has the freedom to discover the world of learning at their own pace and to their fullest capacity. Materials are strategically introduced and represent a graduated learning system.
The open classroom setting supports the development of interactive learning across the age groupings. The younger children often emulate the older ones. The outcome for the younger ones is shown through an academic interest and ability beyond their peers in other programs. The older children reinforce and continually reshape their own knowledge while working with the younger children.
Another important benefit of the open classroom for the children is the exposure to several teachers. The teachers work as a team with each member taking responsibility for each of the graduated levels of the curriculum. This provides a well-rounded sound instructional environment for the young child. Children are taught individually and in small groups. Lessons are carefully prepared and sequenced to ensure success.
In addition to the Montessori curriculum we offer Spanish Music and Art.
