Partnership with Niles Township Schools
A partnership with the District 219 high schools provides the opportunity for students at Niles West and Niles North High School to learn, observe and facilitate Montessori learning for the children enrolled in our 3-6 year old classrooms. Three times per week, high school students observe through a one-way mirror and spend time in the classroom under the direction of our trained 3-6 teachers.
Faculty
Our faculty has a diversity of education and experience that ensure children are exposed to a variety of child development perspectives. Many of our teachers are certified to teach ages 0-3 or 3-6 by the American Montessori Society. Several of our teachers are certified by the Illinois State Board of Education in early childhood and elementary. Our teachers also have Bachelor Degrees in Early Childhood Education and least 15 hours of Early Childhood Education hours. All our teachers are first-aid and CPR certified.
