What your Child Gains from Montessori Pre-Primary
There are no academic requirements for this age, but children are exposed to amazing amounts of knowledge and often learn to read, write and calculate beyond what is often thought unusual for a child of this age.

Extended Day Kindergarten
Montessori of Plainfield and Montessori of Frankfort schools are focused on multi-age teaching sessions that allow children to develop intuitively and through both peer and teacher example and instruction.
However, an Extended Day Kindergarten Program is available that adds an additional time at the end of the day that is dedicated solely to those of kindergarten age to work with peers and receive specific instruction.
In addition, the longer day can help your child make the transition to a traditional first grade school schedule smoother and less difficult. This helps lay the groundwork for the typical academic demands your child will experience in the future.
Summer Program
A summer program may be available. Check with your school director early in the Spring for available spots and a schedule.
- Our summer program allows children who are currently enrolled in our school, and children considering enrollment to attend three days a week during the months of June and July.
- This is an excellent opportunity for new students to get acclimated with our environment before joining us in the fall.
- Our current students will benefit by keeping up with all the skills they have worked so hard to achieve this year.
