A ratio of 15 students to one teacher is maintained with a maximum of 20 in the class. A maximum of 12 students begin the day with quiet activities under the guidance of a college student. Students must attend their regular school session to be able to attend ADP that day. Students who stay for lunch should bring a complete, nutritious meal in a clearly marked lunch box. Send an amount that can be eaten at one sitting and include any necessary utensils as well as a drink.
Children help to set up and clean their lunch environment.
Children rest for 20 minutes. Those who have not fallen asleep may then begin the afternoon activities. Afternoon activities supplement the other Montessori programs. Nutrition, art, science, music, health and safety activities are included.
