    Summer Program At a Glance

    Our Montessori summer program offers a unique and fun learning experience. The program is designed to engage children in hands-on activities and encourage them to explore their creativity in a safe and nurturing environment. They will learn and practice the Montessori principles of respect, independence, and self-regulation.

    Over the course of the summer, your child will be exposed to a variety of activities, such as art, music, science, and physical education. They will be encouraged to develop their problem-solving and communication skills, as well as gain confidence in their abilities. 

    With experienced teachers and a positive atmosphere, your child will have a fun and memorable summer.

    2026 Program Overview

    SESSION 1: Flora & Fauna (June 1 – June 12)
    Flora and fauna surround us! Our beautiful school grounds shelter an amazing variety of plants and animals. We’ll learn how they – and others – grow, survive, and work together in nature. Through hands-on activities, outdoor exploration, and creative projects, we’ll build a deeper connection to the natural world while having fun that sparks our curiosity.

    SESSION 2: Fins & Feathers (June 15 – June 26)
    How did life in the water become life in the air? And how long did it take? Does all life need water? What is a Tropical environment? What lives there? Through visuals, stories, hands-on experiments, games, and art we’ll explore the beauty of rainforest birds soaring above and coral reef ecosystems breathing below; the need of water for life; and make a splash on water day!

    SESSION 3: Cactus & Critters – Desert Discoveries (June 29 -July 10)
    How does life thrive in this special environment? We’ll explore the wonders of the desert, learning about unique cacti and fascinating critters.
