Our Primary School Program
Our students develop into self-motivated, self-disciplined, active, independent learners possessing positive values to last a lifetime.
Half-Day Primary
Monday – Friday: 8:30 AM - 12:00 PM for Half-Day Primary and 8:30 AM - 3:00 PM for Full-Day Primary
The primary classroom is a welcoming, stimulating, and organized space designed to meet a child's individual needs.
Half-day primary students spend their day following the curriculum of the primary program in a mixed-age class and are exposed to special school-wide events such as concerts, and field trips.
The Beddow School provides a snack in the morning. They also have the option to order a special school lunch on designated days. These students follow our dress code and go out for recess, usually once each day.
Full-Day Primary
The primary classroom is a welcoming, stimulating, and organized space designed to meet a child's individual needs. Exposure to a rich variety of experiences is a vital part of the curriculum. The curriculum consists of Practical Life, Sensorial, Mathematics, and Language.
Who We Are
Helping our students develop excellent academic skills, a thirst for knowledge, a strong moral character, and a sense of responsibility for their own education.
The Montessori Method is now over 100 years old. Does that mean that it’s “old”? Absolutely not! The Montessori Method has thrived and grown over the years because it is strong, is being proven by modern neuroscience, and is even more relevant today than it was at the turn of the 20th century. The Beddow School is unique because we are able to find the balance between an authentic Montessori program and life in the modern world. The Beddow Montessori Schools do not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, color, or national origin.
Tours are available on Wednesdays from 10:00 am to 10:30 am.
