Montessori School of Oakton

Montessori School of Oakton is a child care center in Oakton, VA. At Montessori School of Oakton, we enroll children ages 2.5-7. We are a large center open from 9:00am to 3:00pm. The children in the Montessori classroom form an active community of individuals. Each classroom is designed for a three-year age mix to allow for both individual and social development. The younger children learn by observing the work of their older classmates. The older, more experienced children share what they have learned with those new to the group. Every child is given opportunity to strengthen their independence and self-discipline. The continuity of remaining in one classroom for three years allows students to develop a strong relationship with both their classmates and their teachers. Each class is essentially a stable community, with only the oldest third moving on to the next level each year. All of the children are treated with respect and courtesy both by the directress and also by each other. The result is the fullest possible development of the whole child, socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually.
