Our Programs
Montessori Learning Center offers flexible programs that meet the needs of parents with varying schedules. The school year typically runs from September through the first week of June, with holidays, and winter and spring breaks.
Studies have shown that young children benefit most from consecutive days attendance rather than alternating days. Therefore, we offer a selection of consecutive day schedules.
Our daily activities are tailored to align with the child’s natural energy and focus. All programs include times for independent lessons / work, peer work, snacks, meals, rest, and physical activity.

Our Toddler Program serves as a gentle introduction into the Montessori school environment. The program nurtures the child’s natural curiosity within a safe and peaceful learning space. Key aspects of our Montessori program for toddlers include gross and fine motor development, social / emotional growth, sensorial exploration, practical life activities, and language development. Toddlers explore and learn at their own pace with guidance from trained, supportive teachers.
The toddler Program has a phase-in period at the beginning of each school year to help these young children get oriented and become comfortable with the new environment.

In a Montessori classroom, Pre-Primary refers to the foundational stage for young children. Here we foster independence and strengthen the child’s concentration by coaching children on self-care skills, basic practical life activities, and allowing them to explore sensorial activities. The classroom is carefully designed with age-appropriate materials and activities that promote learning through hands-on experiences.
We expose them to rich language through stories, song, and conversation. When a child is ready, we expose them to more abstract skills such as counting, numeral recognition, and sorting / matching to build a foundation in math. Also, exploring the natural world is at the heart of the Montessori method – children learn about seasons, plants and animals and enjoy time spent outdoors.
Our Pre-Primary students are also being prepared for a smooth transition into the Early Childhood classroom the following year.

Our Montessori Kindergarten program serves as a bridge between the Montessori classroom and more traditional first grade placements. Kindergarten students work on a graduation project, which they present during the graduation ceremony.
Our KG curriculum introduces advanced reading and vocabulary, 5-digit math, Science Fridays (new topics and demonstrations in an area of science), higher music and Spanish lessons. We allow additional, uninterrupted time to work on activities individually and in small groups.
A 2006 study published in Science found that 5-year-olds in Montessori schools significantly outperformed peers in both academic and behavioral measures.
Before & After Care
Learning takes place all day at Montessori Learning Center. Staffed by highly qualified Early Childhood professionals, this program provides not just convenience for working parents, but quality enrichment for children who would like more social and creative experiences in their Montessori day. Children in before care begin the day in a quiet and relaxing environment; filled with manipulatives for learning, as well as quiet activities, to ease the transition into the day. Children who come for after school care will experience group activities, crafts, outdoor play, themed units for learning, and lots of time for making friends in a fun and productive manner. Nap time is available for those younger children who still benefit from a nap. Plenty of outdoor and gross motor play is also built into the day to ensure that every child receives a balance of academic, social, and physical enrichment daily. This program is billed hourly.

Montessori Learning Center teaches to the whole child. Each child holds within him or her a creative side which adds depth and refinement to a child’s personality. Creative arts are a means of self-expression, building self-confidence, and improving self-esteem.
