HistoryMaple Grove Montessori, founded in 1996, is a private school Montessori program designed to develop the whole child, ages 3 to 6. We focus on your child's social, emotional and intellectual development. Montessori is a system that is focused on using concrete materials to prepare children for future abstract academic skills. Our curriculum is presented in a carefully prepared environment, which encourages the development of self-confidence, independence, social skills and self-direction.SpecialtiesWe pride ourselves on being a small, private Montessori school. We believe that a small classroom size allows for more one-on-one instruction with each student. Ensure that you register your child(ren) for our 2012-2013 Preschool or Kindergarten programs soon as space is limited.
