Focusing on concrete rather than abstract learning, Children's Place Montessori teaches children how to learn, rather than focusing strictly on rote learning. Montessori programs are intended to teach students respect for their surroundings while giving them a solid foundation of social, emotional and coping skills so that they are better able to navigate a fast-paced world. The school offers classes in math, science and geography, as well as culture, yoga, arts and crafts, drama, nature and gardening. Children's Montessori, located inside St. Thomas Lutheran Church, offers both summer and winter programs.
