A brief overview and history

Since 2006 St. Martin’s school has been offering an exceptional private Montessori education experience for children between the ages of 6 weeks and 6 years.

Our school was conceived and brought to fruition by a group of parishioners of St. Martin’s Church looking to materialize their love of children and St. Martin’s.

The school is housed on five beautiful acres of the St. Martin’s church and welcomes students, teachers and staff from all religious and cultural backgrounds.

Though young children may not yet have the language capacity to describe their inner spiritual lives, we offer the time and space to explore that nameless quality of faith through an optional Montessori-based spiritual curriculum called the “Catechesis of the Good Shepherd.”

Tuition

What is the true value of a Montessori education? Yes, it is a fact that Montessori alumni have gone on to achieve great things in life and enjoy life as only one can when they are self aware and have developed a true passion for learning. As one example, you likely found our website by using a search engine developed by Montessori graduates.

We understand that tuition is an important part of your decision making journey so we’ve presented our tuition structure below.
