The Primary Program (ages 3 - 6 years old)

Primary Class

Our Primary Montessori classrooms are designed for children three through six years old, in a mixed-age group. The classroom provides a place where children have freedom to choose their activities within a carefully prepared and enriching environment.

The children attend the school five days a week as the consistency of going to school each day increases the children's security with the classroom and aids the child in developing a self-directed learning style.

Parents are asked to consider that this is a three-year commitment to their child's education, as one year's work builds upon the next in the classroom. The three year program and age span encourages beneficial social interaction, and allows children to develop their skills year by year in the same environment.
