Montessori Preparatory (Kindergarten through 5th grade)
Monday - Friday 7:00 am - 6:00 pm Montessori is based on a profound respect for the child's personality.

The child works from his own free choice and is allowed a large measure of independence. As each child progresses at his own pace and successfully completes the self-correcting exercises, he develops confidence in his abilities and achievements.

A new school year brings so many opportunities for children to practice doing things for themselves.

From carrying their belongings and putting materials away to choosing work and caring for their classroom environment, these seemingly small responsibilities are an important part of the Montessori day.

Each time a child thinks, “I can do it myself,” they are building more than independence—they are developing confidence in their own abilities that will carry into everything they learn this year.

📚 Elementary Orientation Begins This Week!

Please see the schedule below for your child’s Orientation Night. Each session will begin promptly at 6:15 PM, so we encourage families to arrive a few minutes early.

Please note: Orientation is a parents-only event. We kindly ask that you make arrangements for your children during this time so you can fully focus on meeting your child’s teacher, learning about classroom expectations, and preparing for a successful year ahead.

Today we open the doors to another year of discovery, independence, and joyful learning.

Welcome to our new families, and welcome back to those continuing their Montessori journey with us! Each new school year is a fresh opportunity for children to explore thoughtfully prepared environments, develop confidence through meaningful work, and grow at their own unique pace.

At Montessori, we believe children learn best by doing—through hands-on experiences, purposeful choices, and the freedom to follow their natural curiosity. We are honored to guide and support each child as they build independence, kindness, resilience, and a lifelong love of learning.

We look forward to partnering with our families as we begin another incredible year of growth, discovery, and unforgettable moments.

Welcome to a wonderful new school year!

Preparing for a Successful Start
As we begin looking ahead to the new school year, now is a great time to gradually re-establish school routines. Consistent bedtimes, morning routines, and opportunities for independence can help children feel confident and prepared for the transition back into the classroom.

Practical Life is Learning
Montessori education recognizes that everyday tasks are valuable learning experiences. Cooking, cleaning, organizing, gardening, and caring for pets all help children develop coordination, responsibility, concentration, and independence.

Balance Activity and Rest
Children thrive when active play, quiet work, and rest are all part of their day. Providing opportunities for movement, creativity, independent exploration, and downtime supports healthy development and emotional well-being.
