Ages for which our activities are most appropriate: 
The Hunt Ridge Montessori School’s philosophy is consistent with the teachings of Dr. Maria Montessori. We provide an environment in which children are able to freely cultivate their own natural desire to learn. At The Hunt Ridge Montessori School, we emphasize the development of all facets of a child’s unfolding personality-social, emotional, cognitive and physical. The child is allowed to develop at his/her own pace according to their capabilities, and is in a noncompetitive atmosphere.
