Elementary Program
The Elementary program provides a Montessori school experience for first, second, and third grades.

Afternoon Care
Children approaching the kindergarten year or later, ages 4-9, are eligable to attend. Please contact the school for more information on this program. This program may be subject to cancellation depending upon enrollment.
