Preschool program

Preschool-aged children are eager learners, driven by a growing sense of independence and a deep curiosity about the world around them. At Montessori School of Downtown, our Preschool program honors this stage of development by providing a carefully prepared environment where children are free to explore, choose meaningful work, and build confidence at their own pace.

New concepts are introduced at the right moment of developmental readiness, a time Dr. Maria Montessori called the “Sensitive Period”. Just as a parent nurtures their newborn, we create the ideal atmosphere in an unconditional, positive manner where learning thrives.

Guided by Dr. Maria Montessori’s philosophy, lessons are introduced when a child is developmentally ready, allowing learning to feel natural, purposeful, and engaging. Through hands-on materials and thoughtful guidance, children strengthen concentration, problem-solving skills, and a love of learning that comes from genuine understanding.

In our Preschool classrooms, children learn to work independently and collaboratively, developing respect for themselves, others, and their environment. Each day brings opportunities to grow socially, emotionally, and academically in a setting that values curiosity, responsibility, and joy.

A place where new discoveries are joyously made every day — Montessori School of Downtown offers all of this, and more.

We invite you to visit and experience a Preschool environment where children are empowered to think, discover, and thrive.
