ABOUT US
Our Mission
Our Boring-area Montessori program is rooted in the belief that early education should nurture curiosity, foster independence, and build self-esteem. We guide children through their earliest years with respect, patience, and a commitment to helping them grow into thoughtful, capable individuals.
Montessori classrooms are thoughtfully arranged to support hands-on learning and encourage children to make choices, solve problems, and work both independently and in groups. With gentle guidance from our educators, children are empowered to take charge of their own growth in a calm, organized space.
Outdoor play is an important part of our daily rhythm. Surrounded by Boring’s open spaces and natural beauty, children have the chance to explore and move freely. We also serve well-balanced meals to support physical development and focus throughout the day.
