There are several programs for children ages 3-9 years old. Based upon the philosophy of Dr. Montessori, children are members of multi-age classrooms that span a three year period. The Primary Program is for 3-6 year olds and the Elementary Program is for 6-9 year olds. We also offer an Early Stay and Stay Late Program for all children.
Primary Program (3-4 Years), Half Day (9 a.m. - 12 noon) - The Half Day Primary Program includes a full morning work cycle, outside recess, music lessons twice a week and a snack. Children are dismissed prior to lunch.
Primary Program (3-6 Years), Full Day (9 a.m. - 3 p.m.) - The Full Day Primary Program builds upon the Half Day Program. Children stay for lunch, recess and an afternoon rest time (3-4 years) or afternoon work cycle (5-6 years). Children are either dismissed at 3 p.m. or may transition to the Stay Late Program.
Elementary Program (6-9 Years), Full Day (9 a.m. - 3 p.m.) - The Full Day Elementary Program includes both morning and afternoon work cycles with group and individual work and outside recess. The program also includes weekly lessons in art and computer science, music lesson twice a week and foreign language lessons three times weekly. Children are either dismissed at 3 p.m. or may transition to the Stay Late Program.
