With programs serving infants, preschoolers, and elementary students, Montessori ONE students and their families have an opportunity to progress through the programs, creating a strong foundation for life and education. Children at Montessori ONE Academy are encouraged to explore, investigate and fulfill their natural curiosity about the world around them.

read moreThe Montessori curriculum seeks to promote a global perspective. It takes an integrated, thematic approach that ties the separate disciplines together into studies of the physical universe, the world of nature, and the human experience. In this way, one lesson leads to many others. Montessori Methodology provides hands-on materials to clearly demonstrate abstract concepts in a concrete manner, so children become confident in their understanding. All aspects of the curriculum are integrated into a meaningful whole that is academically rich and challenging.

We encourage you to schedule a tour with our Director and download the enrollment and registration forms that pertain to your family. We look forward to answering any questions you have about the registration and enrollment process at your private tour. Montessori ONE Academy's Nido program is open to infants six weeks through walking. With half-day and full-day care options Monday through Friday, we provide scheduling ease and consistency for parents and infants alike.

Guides demonstrate Montessori fundamentals that will prepare Toddlers for a successful Montessori education. Montessori's Universal Values, Freedom Within Limits, Prepared Environment, Practical Life, and curriculum "Works" are introduced. As with all authentic Montessori programs, students interact in a mixed-age group environment that provides younger students with positive role models and exposure to higher levels of learning, while older Toddlers begin development of early leadership skills.

Assignments may be completed in any order, but all subject matter is designed to work together to demonstrate context and the inter-related nature of the world. We call this "Cosmic Education". Students spend time in both live online lessons and offline practice time. Regardless of whether Montessori students are in a classroom or learning at home, Montessori ONE Academy follows an authentic Montessori curriculum.
