About the Provider

Advertisement
Keys Montessori School is a child-centered preschool and Kindergarten environment guided by the teachings of Dr. Maria Montessori, her methods, and philosophy of education. Within this structured, success-oriented environment, the child has the freedom to choose his work at his own pace. The Montessori materials used at our school incorporate all of the child's senses. The environment promotes peace as well as respect of the teacher, the materials, the classroom and each other.

Two classroom communities include both genders with multi-aged children (three to six years old, including Kindergarten). Children who attend Keys Montessori School are from varied cultural, religious, educational and economic backgrounds and have varied levels of development and abilities.

Keys Montessori School encourages parents to enroll their children in our program at their child's third year and no later than their fourth year and then to remain with our school through their Kindergarten year. The younger children watch and learn from the older children and the older children take pride in helping the younger children.
