Mission Statement 
Toddlers and Twos flourish in a safe interactive environment. Our well-educated caregivers patiently support and guide each child's development. Singing, dancing, listening to stories and hugging are all part of a toddler's day. The program also includes independent exploration, active play, quiet time, and small group lessons. An excellent teacher-to-child ratio insures that each child's needs are met immediately and joyfully.

The Montessori Preschool and VPK encourage children to explore their interests and creativity in a child-centered, peaceful world. Each child's development is accelerated, promoting creative thinking, social skills, self-help and self-esteem. A phonetic pre-reading and writing curriculum encourages interested students to begin reading books at age three or four. A wealth of learning materials preparing each child for future academic success is found in each classroom, including activities to investigate:

  • Botany
  • Zoology
  • Geography
  • History
  • Foreign languages
  • Mathematics
  • Geometry

The child easily discovers that learning is fun and rewarding at our school!

Kindergarten, First, and Second Grade classes provide an explosion into learning. Innovative manipulatives attract children to explore mathematics and geometry, fractions and decimals. Colorful boxes of phonetic materials open and expand the world of reading, spelling, and writing. Three-dimensional cubes of golden beads illustrate place value, classroom scales teach weight and measurement, and maps and globes lure students into research about the diverse world we live in, to mention only a few.

The love of learning is the gift of Montessori Island School offers each child!
