“The greatest gifts we can give our children are the roots of responsibility and the wings of independence.”
~ Maria Montessori
From the moment your child enters our children’s house gate independently, The Ivies Montessori offers a nurturing environment where they can develop a love of learning through individually guided, hands-on discovery and exploration during the first and most important years of their life.
​
Our current school takes place in two bedrooms of a home in central Danville. Coming in the fall of 2024, we will move to a schoolhouse that has thoughtfully been designed as a school and a children's house.
-
It will include a kitchen so students can experience more cooking projects.
-
The 600 square foot space will have a sheltered space for an all-seasons outdoor classroom & dedicated space for lunch buddies.
-
We've designed a reading nook and peace corner in a sunny window seat with a built-in bench and library.
-
The light and bright classroom will be enhanced by skylights and 9 foot ceilings.
-
The entry includes a covered porch where we can remove our shoes and change into slippers as we enter the indoor environment.
