OUR PROGRAMS
Montessori Programs
From 8:30am - 12:00pm, children find time to learn at their own pace, choose what they would like to work on, collaboratively or independently. Our approach offers the foundational building blocks of early childhood education. With our program your child will be introduced to all areas of the Montessori Method including, sensory, language, mathematics, and practical life and indirectly learning life skills independently while gaining confidence. Program is 2 days/week $325/month
Our full time program is offered in the same format as our morning schedule. The children then stay for lunch and have an afternoon for art exploration, free play, outside time and gross motor activities. 8:30am - 3:00pm. Program is 2 full days/week $525/month

Montessori Method
​
From language and literacy development to social skills and creative expression, the children at Lakeside Montessori are constantly being exposed to new activities and environments in which to thrive. We build on the strengths and interests of each child to help build a solid foundation where they can develop their futures. The Montessori Method is a philosophy based on the pricipals of "follow the child". We follow the child in their interests and curiousity. Our goal is to engage the child as to create a curiousity that leads to questions, hypothesis, and therefore testing. When the child learns in this way they are creating their own hands on learning experience. The classroom is always warm, inviting, and prepared for children to come and engage in learning.
