Welcome to Countryside Montessori

Countryside offers classes for toddlers, preschoolers, kindergartners and elementary students grades 1 through 6. All-day, all-year, after school and summer programs are also available.

Our classes are multi-aged, in keeping with the Montessori practice. The mixed age groups provide for peer teaching, role models and leadership experience; they also enhance the sense of community within the classroom.

Curriculum Overview

Our experienced faculty engages the children in specially prepared classrooms using a stimulating Primary and Elementary curriculum including:

Reading Literature Grammar Creative writing Spelling Handwriting

Everyday living skills Sensory awareness Spanish Music Art Physical education

Everything in the classroom is designed to meet the developmental needs and interests of the children. There is no ceiling to what children can learn, and they are able to advance through the curriculum as they are ready, without being limited by the progress of their peers.

Countryside's traditional materials have been researched and developed during decades of classroom use. Our teachers take great care in preparing the environment so that materials are arranged sequentially, children have comfortable work space and there is freedom of physical movement.
