PROGRAMS

Northern International Montessori School currently features four programs: • Toddler Prep • Primary • Lower Elementary • Summer Camp Please follow our Facebook page for program information and enrollment events.

TODDLER PREP

Ages 2yrs to 3yrs The Toddler Prep classroom is ideally suited for 2-3 year old children. This class will help children (and parents!) with the child’s journey toward independence. Our language rich environment and strategy of child enablement assists the child to grow their self-confidence and broadens their learning experiences.

PRIMARY

Ages 3yrs to 6yrs (K1 - K3) The Primary classrooms at NIMS is designed to capture the interests of the child and encourage them to explore the beautiful environment. The developing child during this age span is learning to be independent, and capable of absorbing more information from their surroundings. It is during this period that we provide them with sensory experiences, life skills, mathematics, language, geography, reading, and writing. The mixed-age classroom provides the community experience needed to meet the needs of the social development that is occuring during this time.

LOWER ELEMENTARY (GRADES 1-3)

Ages 6yrs to 9yrs NIMS is opening lower elementary August 2026. This program following the Montessori method allows the children to find their place in their society as they begin to form strong friendships and become aware of group dynamics, the sense of fairness, justice, and rules. Enrollment priority will be given to NIMS currently enrolled students. Enrollment into Lower Elementary at this time is limited to students completing NIMS Primary program.

SUMMER CAMP

The NIMS Summer Camp program is centered around experiences with art/food prep/experiments presented in line with the Montessori methodology. Social skills abound while reinforcing the classroom community culture. Please see our Facebook for Summer Camp details and offerings.
