School Motto: Prepare Your Child鈥檚 Heart and Mind for a Lifetime
Inherent to the Step By Step classroom is a carefully planned
environment and includes the use of Montessori materials to allow
children to explore practical life, sensory perception, reading and
writing abilities, mathematical skills, geographical areas, and
elements of botany and zoology as well as enrichment programs in
music and foreign language. We believe fine arts are a part of the
classroom curriculum and this strengthens the child`s awareness of
their own creativity and the diversity of others.
In addition to the regular school day, families may elect to have
their children participate in Dance, iPad classes, or Swimming
lessons. Step By Step Montessori strives to maintain and retain
quality staff. Our staff retention is among the highest in the
industry. Our Lead Montessori Teachers are all Montessori Certified
and many of our Assistant Teachers and Classroom Aides have either
a four year degree or are working towards a four year degree. Give
your child an advantage that will last a lifetime, this will be the
best investment in your child`s future.
