This commitment to using only the best teaching materials, combined with excellent educators in a nurturing learning environment is a cornerstone of our program.
 
Children in our school learn with a vast collection of Montessori materials developed by leading international manufacturers. From puzzle maps to trinomial cubes, each piece is meticulously designed according to Montessori specifications. This commitment to using only the best teaching materials is a cornerstone of our program.
 
We have created a unique and nurturing environment that promotes the positive development of each child physically, mentally, socially and emotionally. We help every child discover a sense of pride and responsibility that is accomplished through experiencing independence and success. All students participate in a wide variety of enrichment programs such as music, art, yoga, computer classes, chess and P.E. Our nurturing learning environment produces a confident and well-rounded individual.

Our classrooms are designed to provide freedom of movement and selection of activities in order to allow the children to develop emotionally, physically and intellectually at their own pace. Within a framework of respect for the rights of others, the child learns to take responsibility for his or her own actions and le...arning. Underlying the extensive Montessori curriculum is the constant focus on peace and being environmentally responsible. Dr. Montessori felt that the only way to achieve world peace was through the education of children. By teaching young children to value peace among all people as well as to care for the earth, the hope and vision is to create a positive future for all of humanity.

The educator's role is to observe the child, to prepare the environment to meet each child's needs, to guide the child in the use of learning materials, and to be a positive role model in interpersonal relations. The teacher works as a partner with each family combining his/her knowledge of child development, Montessori theories, observations of the children and personal experience with the family’s knowledge of the individual child in order to assist each child in reaching his or her fullest potential.
