Our Mission

Our mission is to provide our students with a high-quality education in a safe and nurturing environment hence they can succeed academically and socially and become the leaders of future generations.

Our Philosophy

We believe the Montessori method of education is a great way to achieve our mission. This approach is a child-centered methodology based on the idea that children are self-motivated and learn through their senses. Our classrooms are carefully prepared by the teachers with specialized materials that are multi-sensorial and provide control of errors, which allows the child to check their work instead of seeking out the teacher. These qualities help to develop the children's concentration, coordination, sense of order, self-discipline, and independence. Children will learn at their own pace, developing self-esteem and social and emotional skills, preparing them for higher education and building a strong foundation for future learning.

Our School

Prime Time Montessori School has two classrooms, one for Toddlers and one for Preschoolers. Being a small size school has many benefits. All the teachers get to know every student, and our children are familiar with all the teachers. It is like a family. We like to pass this warm feeling to our young learners and their parents.

Our teachers carefully prepare their classrooms following the Montessori guidance and tailoring it to their students' needs.

We are preparing our children for the future. We want to give them all the opportunities and expose them to different experiences so they can develop their capabilities and become future leaders. That is why we are integrating STEM into our curriculum because we believe that interacting with science from an early age helps build our children's logical and critical minds and problem-solving skills.

These activities will bring out the curiosity in our children and the willingness to learn and be open to new concepts. All these attributes create the foundations for future learning. Also, we have Spanish and Music as enrichment activities, enhancing creativity, mental flexibility, and memory.

Prime Time Montessori School is proud member of the American Montessori Society and the Pacific Northwest Montessori Association.

I’ve always been especially interested in visual art and attended two years of art college. I spend a lot of my free time painting and drawing, always while listening to music. My dream is to become an elementary school teacher! I find working with kids to be so rewarding because I feel like we teach each other. It’s amazing how children absorb information and creatively apply what they’ve learned. I’m very grateful to be a part of that process.

Working with kids of all ages has taught me so much, especially about patience, creativity, and the importance of building strong, nurturing, and safe relationships.
