What is the Children's House program?

Our three Children's Houses serve children ages 33 months to 6 years (preschool and kindergarten. Each classroom has about 27 students, one lead Montessori-trained teacher and one to two assistants. Our program emphasizes language development, mathematical thinking, peaceful problem solving, and physical, social, and intellectual independence. Children stay in the same classroom for three years, ensuring that teachers get to know their unique learning styles and that they become strong, confident leaders. Children ages 3 and 4 are enrolled in our tuition-based preschool, Bright Water Montessori. Prospective kindergartners must enter a lottery to be enrolled in the elementary program. Our work with the children centers on each child's desire to "help me to do it by myself." We provide many practical life and art activities, from baking, sewing, and painting to scrubbing tables and caring for plants. We provide a wealth of language activities that inspire children to be passionate about storytelling, learning the sounds of the alphabet, writing, and reading. To help build children's mathematical thinking and problem-solving skills, we encourage children to work with manipulatives that teach them to count and to understand quantity. Our overall approach is to serve the whole child and help him or her fully develop socially, emotionally, physically, and intellectually.
