 Primary Communities of 3-6 year old children grow and learn in a three year cycle, culminating in the Kindergarten experience. A traditional Montessori approach is utilized, providing the child with a developmentally appropriate and rich sensory experience along with concrete exploration and manipulation of math, language and cultural materials. The Montessori approach allows for individualized social, emotional, physical and intellectual growth. Half-day or full day options are available for the 3, 4 or 5 year olds. The Kindergarten experience is included in the multi aged program.
