​

OBSERVATION & SCHOOL TOUR
The School Tour & Classroom Observation are opportunities to observe Montessori philosophy and pedagogy in action and to ask questions pertaining to the school, staff, students and curriculum.4 Prospective families are invited to have a school tour and a classroom observation before enrolling their child. Appointments for tours and observations can be made through the main office telephone or email.
