Montessori Country Day School

Montessori education for children from infancy through age six is the core offering. The program serves children as young as two months and follows the Montessori philosophy of respecting each child as an individual. Learning is described as natural and developmentally appropriate, with a consistent approach across the years children attend. The school also emphasizes a supportive partnership between home and school, creating a family-like setting for children, teachers, and parents. Its program includes an infant-toddler offering. Montessori Country Day School is located in Houston and has operated since 1979. It received a School Excellence Award from the Houston Montessori Center and is the only one of three award recipients noted in the text to have an infant-toddler program.
