Testimonials

The teachers are so loving and thoughtful about each individual student. Using the Montessori Method, each child is able to move at the pace that is right for them. The teachers also look for opportunities to let the kids teach each other. For example, one of my kids has mastered one of the “works” that teaches multiplication, so the teachers will often ask him to teach other kids how to use it. It reinforces what he has learned and also teaches him empathy and patience.

Teachers at this school are effective

For 2025-2026 school year:
WE ARE ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS for FULL DAY students who are ready to enroll in Primary (ages 4.5-6) as well as Lower Elementary (ages 6-9). Apply today!

Waiting pool: there are a few factors contributing to enrollment, aside from date of application. We do our best to give priority to families with siblings already enrolled. Families who intend to do Montessori through the elementary years here at DPM will also be given priority enrollment. The child’s age is a big factor to ensure a balanced classroom, readiness of the child, and the commitment to Montessori practices at home contribute to our decision. There is an observation of the prospective student in the classroom with the teacher that takes place prior to enrollment.

For those reasons, it is impossible to promise applicants placement or openings in future enrollment periods. The best course of action is to thoroughly fill out an application, and contact us to schedule a tour and schedule a meet and greet. Enrollment for new families takes place each year in February.
