Mission Statement 
Conveniently located between the communities of Islamorada and Key Largo in Tavernier, near to the areas only large shopping center, our colorful facility, (featured in an article in ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW), was designed and built in 1996 solely and specifically with the Montessori ideals of beauty, simplicity, safety and optimum learning as guiding principles.

Each of our classrooms are spacious and comfortable permitting a wide range of learning materials to be available at all times. Large windows set low allow natural light and views of the surrounding foliage, while bathroom and sink facilities in each room meet all the children's needs with convenience and safety. In addition, observation rooms adjacent to each classroom allow parents to drop in "unnoticed" and watch their children working at any time, (a Montessori tradition).

PlaygroundPlaytime is as important as work time in the development of the young child. The playground areas are therefore full of activities and equipment for physical and imaginative play. The play areas are delineated by age group so that play time remains safe and appropriate to the physical needs of each class. A number of the play spaces are covered so that activities can continue even in rainy or hot conditions, and each area is of a size and shape for efficient supervision.

Come by for a tour and see for yourself how a nurturing and stimulating environment promotes good growth and learning.
