Parents also attend various community and school events including our Fall Festival to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation, a school picnic, graduation and special Mother’s Day and Father’s Day events.

Our Programs

The Montessori Method was developed by Italian educator, Dr. Maria Montessori, in the early twentieth century. It is built upon the idea that children develop and think differently than adults, and that they are competent beings, capable of self-directed learning. We combine proven methods with the nurturing your child needs to discover and grow. Employing a vast selection of genuine Montessori materials that are practically irresistible, they help guide children along the path of true discovery. Our special, proven approach can help your child enhance independence, inspiration and intelligence.

Testimonials

Since our son started here, his independence and confidence have sky rocketed. There is no way that any other child care program could ever provide the level of activities, learning, and skills that Montessori provides. The teachers are the guides and the children are the leaders of their unlimited potential.

Montessori is by far the best school my kids have ever gone to. We moved from Mexico to Illinois and my youngest did not speak a word of English. By the end of the school year, he knew more words in English than he did in Spanish. He is now reading and writing, and this is attributed to the best teaching staff I have ever known.

- C.D.

The teachers and staff are very friendly. The school not only supplies strong academic education, but also develops little ones’ skills, such as social, behavior, communication, and how to raise questions.

- J.C.

Montessori teachers are committed to teach the kids independence to educate them, and to keep them busy and interested. They are high quality, driven teaches. Montessori also offers flexible hours of operation for working parents, as well as a variety of extra-curricular activities.
