Our Vision
Like parents everywhere, we care about our children, want what’s best for them, and know that their experience in school can have a great impact on the quality of their life.
We want them to have an education that is worthy of their beauty and potential.
We want them in a place where they are known, not as faces in a crowd, but individually and personally.
We want them in a school where they receive direct, high-quality attention, where their actual needs are met, where their potential is being realized.

Why Montessori
Over one hundred years ago, Dr. Maria Montessori centered her new educational approach around the natural curiosity of young children.
Our Programs
Students learn in multi-age classrooms, with no grades or comparisons to others, and an emphasis on cooperation and independent thinking.
