Curriculum & special classes
The Montessori course of study is an integrated thematic approach that ties the separate disciplines of the curriculum together, moving children from concrete toward abstract understanding. The school's mission is to educate children in a way that promotes independent learning, supports emotional growth, and embraces differences using the Montessori approach.
Financial aid
The Montessori School offers need-based financial aid to students who have completed one academic year, with amounts awarded based on the guardian’s financial abilities. The awarding of tuition assistance is an annual process and is not automatically renewed.
