Montessori Kindergarten & Preschool fosters each child’s BEST potential—academically and beyond!

Our preschool program provides your child with rich experiences that are adapted to the developmental needs of each child.

Inspiring discovery & development

Preschool is an exciting (and crucial) time for a child’s academic and social growth. This age sets the stage for the future. That is why we meet the needs of each child. Our classrooms provide a welcoming environment for discovery and exploration that will spark your child’s natural curiosity. Stand out features within our classrooms include students learning from peers as well as the teachers, a unique reading program, STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics) curriculum, character education and social development. Through hands-on, multi-sensory materials we foster a lifelong appreciation for learning.
