Tuition Raise Note
*We have increased our tuition for 2026-2027 in order to keep up with rising operation costs and to also provide fair compensation and raises for our amazing teachers who undergo continuous professional development, certificate/degree learning, and training for early childhood education and elementary education. All of our teachers have at least their bachelors if not their masters degrees in education related fields. All of our teachers also undergo formal Montessori certification training in order to keep up with the most respectable affiliations and certifications of the American Montessori Society, Association Montessori Internationale, and International Montessori Society.
Our school is indeed a private school, but we operate on a negative profit basis where a private benefactor and outside donations help to cover the costs of our school. There are case-by-case scenarios where we are able to help some families in need, but we have decided to formalize the financial aid process and request that families apply for external subsidy programs like Community Childcare Solutions and Community Coordinated Child Care due to the growing amount of costs that our private benefactor has covered for our school. We will also be opening a formal financial aid application process with Clarity - an unbiased third party financial aid assessment company.
Please reach out to learn more about our school and how you and your child may be able to join our growing family at Discovery Christian Montessori!
STEPPING STONE
STEPPING STONE (20 months - 3.5 Years)
Catered for children from 20 months to 3.5 years of age, our Stepping Stone classroom prepares our young students for the wonderful world of a Montessori classroom. The toddlers learn various ways to care for themselves and the environment. Toddlers learn how to interact with one another, work as a group, safely explore their environment and experience safe independence. Through Practical Life work, they also learn the pre-cursor activities that train their fine motor skills development for reading, writing, and more. The main focus of our Stepping Stone class is to fulfill the children's deep and innate desires of order, concentration, coordination, and independence.
