Infants (6 weeks - 12 Months)

Welcome to the Infant program at Centerra Ranch Montessori School, where we prioritize the well-being and development of your little ones. Upon entering our infant room, you'll immediately notice a serene atmosphere designed to promote calmness and security, creating a soothing environment for our youngest learners.

Our dedicated infant teachers, trained in the Montessori approach, understand the importance of nurturing each child as an individual. With a low teacher-to-infant ratio, we ensure that every child receives the love, care, and attention they need to thrive. Just like at home, our staff members foster a warm and supportive atmosphere, building strong bonds with each infant in our care.

At Centerra Ranch Montessori School, we understand that entrusting your little one to someone else is a significant decision. That's why we strive to create a nurturing and supportive environment where your child can flourish, supported by a team of caring professionals who are dedicated to their well-being and development.

Transition (24 - 36 Months)

The Transition Room serves as a bridge between the world of early childhood exploration and our pre-primary program. Designed with the principles of Montessori education at its core, this room offers a rich tapestry of experiences aimed at nurturing holistic development in our children.

At the heart of our Transition program lie five distinct Montessori areas: practical life, sensorial, language, math, and art. Each area is meticulously crafted to engage children in hands-on learning experiences that foster independence, creativity, and a thirst for knowledge.

In the Transition Room, every corner is a learning opportunity, and every activity is a chance for children to discover, explore, and grow. With a curriculum grounded in the four developmental areas of sensory and perception, physical and motor skills, self-help skills, and language, our Transition program sets the stage for a lifetime of learning and discovery.

Additionally, our Transition Room offers ancillary courses in Spanish, Yoga, Art, and music, providing children with opportunities to explore new interests and cultivate a well-rounded education.

Pre-Primary (3-4 Years)

Welcome to our vibrant and engaging pre-primary classroom, where every child is encouraged to thrive and reach their full potential. At Centerra Ranch Montessori School, we believe in providing a well-rounded education that nurtures the whole child. 

Our carefully crafted curriculum caters to children aged 3 to 4 years old, providing a nurturing environment that stimulates their innate curiosity, fosters a love for learning, and prepares children for future academic success. The main pillars of this stage are language, physical, motor, sensory, perception, and self-help skills.

At Centerra Ranch Montessori School, we understand the importance of early childhood education, which is why our Pre-Primary teachers are specially trained with over 30 years of combined Montessori teaching experience. With a student-to-teacher ratio of 12:1, each child receives individualized attention to ensure their holistic development.

Primary / Bridge to Kindergarten (3 - 6 Years)

The primary room at Centerra Ranch Montessori School buzzes with the energy of young minds eager to learn and explore. Throughout the primary room, the ethos of the Bridge-To-Kindergarten program is evident. While embracing the principles of Montessori education, which values individualized learning and self-directed exploration, the curriculum also incorporates elements of Traditional education, ensuring that children are well-prepared for their future steps in education. The seamless integration of both approaches creates a dynamic learning environment where children thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

Central to the success of the Bridge-To-Kindergarten program is the dedicated team of educators who guide and support the children on their educational journey. Trained in both Montessori and Traditional pedagogies, these teachers possess the expertise and passion necessary to inspire a love for learning in every child.

As children move through our Primary room, they not only acquire knowledge and skills across core academic subjects but also develop essential life skills such as independence, resilience, and problem-solving. They become confident learners ready to embark on the next chapter of their educational journey with enthusiasm and curiosity.
