PROGRAM FEATURES:

Mixed-age classrooms nurture a sense of community, promote social-emotional growth, leadership, and encourage peer-based learning.
Hands-on learning is how children learn best! Classrooms are filled with beautiful Montessori materials, so that children may explore a range of subjects, from academics and world cultures, to nature and art!
Uninterrupted work periods allow children to deepen their focus, stretch their attention span and develop a keen understanding of each area of study.
Independent and guided activities allow children to follow their interests and learn at their own pace, all under the thoughtful attention of a trained Montessori Guide.
Individual and group activities foster both independence and collaboration.
Beauty and nature, and lots of time to play!
