School Notes

The Primary Montessori Day School is a private, non-sectarian, co-educational school for children age two (2) through nine (9) years old (Toddler - Grade 3).
It is a non-profit corporation, founded in 1998 on the premise that our schools are best in the hands of experienced educators.
Thirty-four years of teaching the Montessori curriculum provide an extensive practical foundation for meeting the needs of young children and their parents.
The school is approved by the Maryland State Board of Education.
The school is accredited by the American Montessori Society (AMS) and recognized by the National Council for 草榴社区 School Accreditation (NCPSA).

With constant interaction and problem solving child to child each child is challenged according to his ability. Curriculum is integrated. No subject is taught in isolation. As soon as a child understands a material, he may work on it independently. When he masters a material, he receives a new lesson. The Montessori method provides the opportunity for the child to develop independence, confidence, creativity, self-motivation, responsibility and academic competency. Montessori directives complement the needs of all children, while affording the freedom necessary to preserve each child's uniqueness. Our school is located in a new building in North Potomac. It has been designed specifically for Montessori education. Many months of research has been done in determining the architectural details which provide comfortable, home-like classrooms and an environment conducive to the education of young children.
