Is your child overstimulated by large, bustling classrooms?
Are important skills often overlooked in the rush to cover material for dozens of students at once?
๐ฟ At Planted Seed Montessori School, we prioritize meaningful connections with our students. With a low student-teacher ratio, our exceptional educators engage directly with each child.
๐งฎ As a lesson is beginning, our students have the opportunity to approach their teacher, eager to learn and make sense of the world. Our teachers meet students at their emotional and academic level, ensuring learning is tangible and tailored to their unique needs. Instead of abstract theory, our approach emphasizes practical understanding that students can see, measure, and digest. Ensuring our students are confident and capable within their academics, without compromising social-emotional wellbeing!

๐ Why Circle Time Matters for Elementary Students ๐
Circle time isn't just a fun activityโit's essential! It boosts social skills, builds community, enhances communication, and supports emotional growth. Plus, it makes learning engaging and fun through songs, games, and storytelling. Let's nurture confident, empathetic, and collaborative learners! ๐ฌ๐ซ๐

As a small, independent school we are fortunate enough to make the natural world our classroom, exploring our city and local trail systems freely, and as often as we can to uncover new learning opportunities out of doors. Our low student-teacher ratios allow for one-on-one, hands-on learning and individualized support for each child at our school.
Our mornings are peacefully spent focusing and engaging with child-lead, tactile learning during our 3-hour Montessori work block. With the reassuring guidance and support of our teachers, our students are able to take their education into their own hands.
After lunch, Mother Nature becomes our classroom and teacher.
