  2. Renaissance Montessori has created a wonderful and calm environment, nurturing children and helping their natural learning process, in which children feel safe and loved.  The educational environment fosters respect, cooperation, order, choice within limits and provides children with the opportunity to attain their full potential.  The school’s peaceful setting promotes strong moral values.At each stage of his/her development, a child acquires the tools necessary for critical thinking, decision-making and respect for his/her environment.  With the guidance of a Montessori teacher, the child chooses what helps him/her to construct him/herself, which results in a love of life and learning, promoting independence, self-esteem and growth.

  3. Application Process

    Renaissance Montessori  is a special place where students are honored for who they are. We take great care in educating the whole child, and we look for candidates that will flourish in the Renaissance community.

    We seek students who are curious, independent, and engaged—students who embody our mission of becoming lifelong learners. We value academic curiosity, inquisitiveness, and the desire to know, and we motivate children who will be future leaders who go on to make a difference in the world.

 Steps for Enrollment

 Parent Information Meeting with the Director

After careful review of this website, we recommend that applicants register for a Parent Meeting (approximately one hour long). This session is designed for parents to receive further information about the Montessori philosophy, Montessori programs, foreign language development programs, and our art and technology programs. Parents will also learn the specifics about the way in which they and their children can experience RENAISSANCE MONTESSORI.

 Acceptance Spaces

There are limited spaces available for students. Our student teacher ratio is 1 to 10. We have highly qualified teachers and specialists.  Montessori teachers are certified by either AMS or AMI and our Director is an experienced Montessori professional who has been Head of School at top tier private schools in several states.

We are open 5 days a week am and pm in order for families to have a selection of classes and flexibility, but we have limited openings for each class. Our program is focused on providing each child with individual attention and meeting their social,  intellectual and physical needs. Students, of course, may attend half day or full day plus extended day classes in languages, art and science throughout the week as long as openings exist in those classes.
