Montessori Country Day has helped both of my daughters become independent thinkers who engage in the world with curiosity and confidence.

My two children attended Montessori Country Day from age one until kindergarten. We wanted a high quality Montessori program that felt inviting and safe and that offered extended hours due to our work schedules. MCD was an absolutely perfect fit. The director has high expectations for her teachers. And she provides them with the support and training opportunities they need to continue to grow. My kids LOVE going to school and have created some beautiful memories because of their time at MCD. The teachers are nurturing, creative, and communicate well with parents.
