Primary
Children discover and learn from their own experiences
At Wheatley your child will flourish in our loving and caring environment. Our Montessori programs provide your child the opportunities to develop to his or her full potential. By following each child’s unique needs, we allow them to explore, create, and discover new things to satisfy their innate curiosity. They develop motor and perceptual skills as well as social, emotional and practical life skills. They are introduced to reading, math, history, geography and science.
Montessori Growth
In the prepared environment, our accredited Montessori Directresses and Directors lead the children to sound work habits, independence, responsibility and well developed social skills. With a sense of order and the ability to think in logical patterns, your child is ready to meet the academic challenges of up coming years.
The Montessori method allows children to discover and learn from their own experiences and is based on principles including observation, order, and independence, all in a loving and nurturing environment.
We offer a toddler program (starting at age 18 months) and a Casa Program for children age 3 to 6 years
Lower Elementary
Our lower elementary program provides a continuation of the Montessori method. Students coming from a Montessori preschool build on that experience.
Upper Elementary
In the warmth and diversity of our school community, upper elementary students are challenged to participate at their optimum level.
Admissions
At Wheatley, the admission process is designed to help potential students, their parents, and the school, make an informed and appropriate decision about enrolment. As part of this process, we ask that you become familiar with the school, our philosophies and policies.
