Summer Program

Nurturing and developing a student’s natural curiosity and imagination for lifelong learning.  Our graduates are joyful citizens of the world who standout as poised, responsible leaders.

An exciting and nurturing environment fosters your child’s lifelong love of learning during a time when school is not in session. Hands-on activities, science experiments, creative arts, drama and working outside help challenge children to grow in the Montessori tradition.

Fraser Woods Montessori School summer program is divided into weekly sessions, and participation in any one week or every week is welcomed. Children who attend full day programming will need to bring a bagged lunch, no nut products please! Before and after care is also available. The younger program serves children 3-6 years, and activities are offered for those 7-12 years.  Middle School students are invited to apply for Junior Instructor positions, helping with the younger children. All students will be enrolled in a first come, first serve basis.
