Our Programs

I grew up with Montessori practices, so we knew we wanted our son to have the same learning experiences. We appreciate how much care his teachers take. His language and social skills have grown so quickly in just a short amount of time. You can tell he thinks deeper about the world around him.

The Benefits of Community

By Stephanie Sayre • 14 May, 2024
THE BENEFITS OF COMMUNITY The Montessori approach considers the whole child and at CMS we look for student engagement cognitively, physically, and socially. The circles of connection, which start of course at home with the family, extend to individual students, the class group, and throughout the whole school. There's many ways every day that students at CMS benefit from the supportive community we work hard to establish at school.

We Appreciate Our Teachers!

This is Teacher Appreciation week at CMS and we are so happy to celebrate the hard work and dedication of the amazing people who work with students on our campus every day! A big thank you to the Class Ambassadors group for organizing a week-long celebration for our staff, with daily treats, breakfasts, and lunch. An even bigger THANK YOU to our incredible CMS staff!

Planes of Development & Moving Up

By Stephanie Sayre • 30 Apr, 2024
MONTESSORI'S PLANES OF DEVELOPMENT If you've been at CMS awhile you've definitely heard us talk about the planes of development. I know - but they are so important! They are top of mind right now, as we head into our last month of the school year. Some of our CMS students will be "moving up" - which is our way of saying they're transitioning from their current plane of development into the next one. Let's review!
