Pre-K Program
About Our Casa Program
Our Montessori Pre-K, known as "Casa," is a voluntary, tuition-based program designed for children ages 3 and 4. Guided by Montessori principles, the Casa program nurtures children's natural, spontaneous development, focusing not on preparation for school, but on building a foundation for life.
“Our method takes into account the spontaneous psychic development of a child and assists it with means drawn from observation and experience…The education of even a very small child, therefore, does not aim at preparing him for school but for life.”
– Maria Montessori, The Discovery of the Child
Admission Process
Admission to the Casa program is lottery-based. To learn more about the lottery and enrollment for the next school year, please visit our Lottery Process page.
Note: Acceptance into the Casa program does not guarantee a spot in our kindergarten. The kindergarten program requires a separate lottery application. To be eligible for this, Pre-K 4 students must apply and secure a lottery spot. All kindergarten applicants must be 5 years old by September 1, as per state law.
