Teachers

"The secret of good teaching is to regard the child's intelligence as a fertile field in which seeds may be sown, to grow under the heat of flaming imagination".- Maria Montessori

Our staff reflects professionalism at all levels. Most hold undergraduate or advanced degrees in education, or Montessori specialization. All are life-long learners. Our students also benefit from parent and community collaborators and specialty teachers in the areas of Music, Spanish, and Dance/Gymnastics and Skiing.

Our Toddler and Primary Classes have a lead teacher and an assistant, making the student teacher ratio 6:1 and 7:1 respectively. Our Lower Elementary (6-9 year old class) has two co-teachers with a student teacher ratio of 10:1. Our Upper Elementary (9-12 year old class) has a lead teacher and assistant and a ratio of 8:1.
