Our Classroom Environment
We are proud to be a STEM-certified Montessori school, where we thoughtfully integrate STEM principles into our time-tested Montessori curriculum. By combining hands-on, child-centered learning with science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, we nurture curiosity, problem-solving skills, and creativity in every child.
At the heart of the Montessori approach is the development of order, coordination, concentration, and independence (OCCI). These four elements form the foundation for a child’s growth and learning, particularly during the toddler years when children naturally explore their environment and build essential life skills.
Our Montessori Toddler Program is designed to support the development of our youngest children by fostering confident and capable learners. Mastering OCCI during the toddler years lays the groundwork for all future academic, social, and emotional growth.

Montessori Curriculum
At this formative stage, toddlers begin to explore the five core areas of the Montessori curriculum: Language, Math, Sensorial Development, Practical Life, and Cultural Life. Another unique quality of our school is that we integrate STEM principles into our Montessori Curriculum, starting at the earliest age levels. We take it a step further by adding the "A" in STEAM—Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math. The arts foster creative thinking, a crucial element for innovation in any field.

More About Practical Life: True to the Montessori experience, we use real-life objects and meaningful, tangible materials in every lesson to help children develop a deep understanding through direct experience. Our classroom activities reinforce concepts through independent work and small-group interactions, promoting their social development and fostering their confidence. These skills foster order, coordination, concentration, and independence.

More About the Sensorial Area: At the Toddler stage, a child’s greatest strength is their five senses. Our Sensorial Area in the classroom provides our children with intentional, engaging activities that help refine their senses for use in learning more complex concepts.
​
Partnership Between School and Home
The success of our program is rooted in our strong, close partnership with families to monitor and support each child’s developmental milestones. We recognize that each child has a unique path, and we honor their strengths, encourage growth in areas where needed, and ensure our children enjoy their learning experience with confidence and purpose.
