Parents, our program officially begins this summer!

Early childhood is a crucial time for development mentally and physically. We promote independence so children will have the foundation they need to lead a life of success.

Our preschool is open to all children aged 3-4 years old with programs available year-round to ensure parents have a reliable and fun place for their children to thrive.

What makes Eagle Creek different?

CHILD-CENTERED

Children all develop at different paces with different strengths and interests. While traditional education requires students to all follow the same path set by the teacher, Montessori encourages the individual child to learn based on their personal interests.

ADAPTABLE CURRICULUM

Montessori's flexible curriculum is designed with the idea that each child is different. In order to accommodate each child's needs, there are multiple different paths a child can take in order to reach our ultimate goal of notable developmental progress and school readiness.

MEANINGFULLY STRUCTURED

Our classroom is divided into 5 subject areas: Practical Life, Language, Mathematics, Sensorial Development, and Culture & Sciences. Our environment is uncluttered to avoid distraction and emphasize that this is a learning space. It is organized where children can access all play-oriented learning materials and get more out of their experience.

TEACHER'S ROLE

By observing children and taking note of their interests and levels of understanding, Montessori teachers unveil the unique potential in every child. They keep record of improvements, readiness, and subject interests so that they may draw on the information later when preparing the curriculum for the day.

HANDS-ON LEARNING

Students take an active role in their education. They have the responsibility to approach the subjects they are interested in, so they are extremely engaged in the lessons. With Montessori preschool classes, the lessons often consist of physical materials—children can literally be “hands-on” with math and language skills.

ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS

Within a Montessori school, even outdoor play is used as a teaching opportunity. Environmental education is an ideal way to integrate academic disciplines, stimulate the academic and social growth of young people, and promote conservation of the natural environment.
