Montessori Half Day

Mission: To educate to the whole child’s spiritual, physical, emotional, and cognitive development through exploration of nature, the Catholic faith, and hands on classroom discovery chosen at the child’s own pace. We aim to foster a “love of learning” while respecting the dignity of each child.
Our school is set up in a way that allows opportunity for growth of the whole person. The foundation is the Montessori environment in which the children work with materials to master skills of all kinds but not limited to; language arts, math, arts and music, culture and science, botany, zoology, and education to life skills.
In the atrium, we present “Catechesis of the Good Shepherd” where the children use realistic materials that bring Bible and Liturgy together in a developmentally appropriate way. The outcome is a deeply personal and joyful expression of faith in community and invites the child into relationship with Jesus, the Good Shepherd.
Our kitchen area is set for food prep, meals and manners, and responsible upkeep of the area. There is also a large indoor space for music and movement and special events.
In 2024, we are excited to open our outdoor classroom area, where a good part of each morning will be spent in most weather conditions!
