Part-time programs are available two, three, or five mornings a week. Toddler classrooms are bright and cheerful, with plenty of space for physical activity and exploring. Classroom activities are designed to appeal to the natural curiosity of the child, while providing a warm and home-like setting. These classrooms include areas for large motor activity, imaginative play and learning spaces, a rest or quiet area and several outdoor playgrounds. This group forms the largest single component of our preschool program.
Classes are available in a variety of part- time and full time schedules.
Our curriculum emphasizes the development of perceptual and motor skills as well as social and academic abilities. Children are encouraged to develop good work habits and to share in the responsibility of their own learning. They acquire a sense of order and independence. Children work at their own pace and on their own level in the preschool classes with gentle guidance from dedicated teachers. The elementary program of Wilmington Montessori School consists of classes from Kindergarten through Sixth Grade.
