Our infant program provides a warm, cozy, and safe environment that encourages infants to safely explore, feeling secure in the presence of loving adult caregivers. The environment includes developmentally appropriate furniture and materials. Safety is paramount, but equipment that limits a child’s freedom of movement is avoided. Instead, specially designed furniture supports your child’s budding independence, including bars for pulling up, mirrors to reflect body movement, a sleeping area with individual cribs or floor beds/mats, and child-sized tables and chairs rather than high chairs.
Our Vision for Our Students to be:
- Safe, happy, self-motivated, and excited about learning
- Kind and helpful to others
- Respectful, responsible, and accepting of differences

- Able to articulate their needs and meet their full academic potential.

Preprimary Program
Our pre-primary childcare program provides an environment where young children are encouraged to explore and challenge themselves as they develop into independent human beings. The main goal of the toddler environment is to help the children to function independently, to allow them to explore their environment and manipulate the objects in the environment freely, to assist them in their rapid language development, and to introduce them to methods of developing their minds and bodies. This highly ordered environment allows toddlers to explore, refine movements, increase language in a language-rich setting, and to move toward independence in a safe, warm, and stable venue where they acquire the skills to “do it myself.”2 yrs to 3 yrs
Preschool Program
The preschool classroom is designed in a manner that allows children to work independently and at their own developmental pace. Greater Montessori School acceptsstudents into a welcoming and mind-stimulating academic curriculum. Research has proven that children during this age group tend to have a heightened ability to absorb information. Based on this research, we want to help you create little geniuses who positively impact the world. This program assists in meeting the needs of children who are curious, active, and explorative. Not only do we offer theoretical knowledge to our students, we also give our students a chance to actively carry out concepts taught to cement their learning experience.2 yrs to 3 yrs
