A gentle, nurturing start where children explore movement, language, and sensory discovery. Teachers provide responsive care that builds trust and supports early independence.
Pre-Primary (2 – 3 years)
A bridge between Toddler and Primary that encourages self-care, coordination, and early social growth. Children begin to express independence and curiosity in a guided, supportive setting.
Primary (3 – 6 years)
Students work with hands-on materials for math, reading, and life skills. The Montessori environment helps each child develop focus, confidence, and respect for others while learning at their own pace.
Lower Elementary (6 – 9 years)
Children connect subjects through creative projects and collaborative study. Lessons in science, geography, and culture inspire curiosity and responsibility. Learning becomes a shared adventure.
Upper Elementary (9 – 12 years)
Older students embrace leadership and self-direction through advanced lessons, research, and community projects. These years build confidence, independence, and a readiness for middle school and beyond.
How does a Montessori School shape your child’s journey?
Strong Learning Results
Country Day Montessori’s school program does better than regular schools through our proven Montessori methods. Children excel in math, reading, and thinking compared to other students. Montessori students have success at schools like Texas Military Institute, gifted programs, and charter schools nearby. The Montessori way of letting children choose their learning helps create confident students who stay curious while building strong school skills.
Holistic Child Development
Our Montessori way helps the whole child grow in thinking, body movement, feelings, and making friends. Children learn to be independent through real-life activities, improve their senses through special learning materials, and build friendship skills in our mixed-age classrooms. Our special campus with a butterfly house, gardens, and friendly animals gives children real learning experiences that regular schools cannot provide.
