hands-on learning
Philosophy
We believe that every child is born with an innate love of learning. Our goal is to foster that love and allow every child to reach their full potential.
NOW ENROLLING AGES 3 TO 8th GRADE
Planting Seeds of Excellence.
Warm and inviting classrooms where children are treated with respect and multi-age grouping creates a community of happy students who mentor, inspire and learn from one another. Low child-to-teacher ratios ensure each child is guided through the curriculum, receives many individual and small group lessons each day and ultimately achieves his or her academic potential.
An emphasis is placed on community service and helping others. Active instruction in peacemaking, conflict resolution strategies and respect for others promotes sociability. Outdoor classrooms and gardens, field trips and guest speakers enhance the extensive curriculum. Children are given ample time in the outdoor environment by spending time in the garden and in other natural settings.
Our location affords us access to hiking trails around the UCC campus.

the Montessori Method, our child’s education is built on his natural strengths and interests. I know this investment as a young child will benefit him for the rest of his life. The beautiful and secure location is an added bonus."

HEAR FROM OUR PARENTS
"Learning above and beyond about responsibility, continents of the world, how to fold a blanket … new things all the time. It’s amazing. If kids are sponges, they are truly soaking everything in. Practical skills and grade-school level geography just a couple months into Pre-K."
