YOUNG CHILDREN'S COMMUNITY

The Young Children's Community (ages 18 months to 3 years, licensed child care and preschool) provides individual and communal opportunities for very young children to gain experience in independence, coordination, organization, and concentration through daily living activities. This includes toileting, dressing, food preparation, shared meals, plant and animal care, and more. Experiencing other sensorial and language activities, encompassing all areas of learning also assists the children in gaining independence.

Primary Community-Enrolling for Spring and Summer 2025

The Primary Community (ages 3 to 6 years, preschool and kindergarten) offers continued individual and communal opportunities for young children in daily living activities, as well as sensorial and language experiences in all areas of learning. This includes the fine arts, geography, math, the sciences, geometry, and history, and occurs in a broader environment with a wider choice of activities. Very gradual development towards abstraction during these years dictates the need for beginning writing and reading.

YOUNGER ELEMENTARY
COMMUNITY

In the Younger Elementary Community (ages 6  to 9 years, 1st grade to 3rd grade) our Lead Guides all utilize the Montessori tradition of instruction. This allows children to learn and be helped on an individual basis. This learning establishes more understanding between the child, the Guide, and the work. The Elementary program integrates elements from the primary program (imagination, abstraction, language, socialization) with advanced cultural exploration in the arts, sciences, and the Universe.

THE ADOLESCENT COMMUNITY

In the Adolescent Community (ages 12 to 14 years, 7th and 8th grade) students deepen their studies of the traditional academic subjects through intense group discussions and individual research. They have practice in presenting in front of a group, entrepreneurship, scheduling visits outside of school to learn about real world applications, and are guided to maintain important short term and long term planning and goals for their academic work.
