At Chestnut Montessori School, our goal is to provide our children opportunities to grow and develop within all curriculum areas and to provide a foundation to excel in their personal and character development.
All teaching positions require dedicated teachers who have a passion for education and are organized, flexible, and sensitive to children's needs with solid verbal and written communication skills.
Our Dawn to Dusk program provides care during before school hours, from 8:00-8:45, and after school from 2:45-6:00.
Children who arrive prior to 8:30 gather in their classrooms, where they can look at books, draw or color, assist teachers with classroom preparation, or help prepare snacks. Some typical tasks children enjoy doing include: folding laundry, gathering and arranging flowers, or setting out plates and cups for snack. Children enjoy the extra quiet time as they transition to their school day.
After school is a very active time, when students have extra play time outside, early and late afternoon snacks, and time inside to play games, collaborate on projects, and read. Dawn to Dusk activities are based on our Montessori and STEAM curriculum.
