Orcas Montessori School still has a few slots available and is hosting an open house on Saturday, August 20, from 10AM to 12 PM. Bring your child and your questions and spend time exploring the classroom, the curriculum, and the benefits of the Montessori method.
While there, your child will enjoy discovering and working with a wide variety of natural materials that encourage movement necessary to a child’s early development. “The Montessori classroom offers children a wealth of hands-on activities,” explains school director Teresa Chocano. “Each activity is presented individually and in keeping with each child’s needs and abilities, under observation of a trained guide.”
Founded in 1988, Orcas Montessori School serves children ages 2 and ½ to 6 years who are potty trained. The school is located at 1147 North Beach Road in Eastsound. For more information, visit the website at www.orcasmontessori.org, email questions to info@orcasmontessori.org, or leave a message at 376-5350.
