One continuous journey
From fifteen months to six years, each carefully prepared environment flows naturally into the next.
At Corvallis Montessori School, we honor each child’s unique developmental journey through beautifully prepared environments, multi-age communities, and purposeful work. Explore our programs below to find the right fit for your family.
The Toddler Program
Ages 15 months to 3 yearsIn our Toddler communities, young children find a peaceful, nurturing environment designed to feed their “absorbent minds.” Through real-world activities, toddlers build a strong foundation of independence, confidence, and language development.
Exercises of practical life (including food prep and toileting), sensorial exploration, and speech development.
Spaces fill quickly, particularly for our youngest group. We strongly recommend applying one year in advance.
The Primary Level
Ages 3 to 6 yearsThe Primary Level—comprising the first two Primary years and the crucial capstone Kindergarten year—introduces children to a vibrant, multi-age community. Here, children transition from concrete hands-on materials to deep, abstract understandings of the world around them.
Language and early literacy, a concrete foundation in mathematics, cultural studies (geography, botany, zoology), and daily indoor/outdoor work cycles.
Graduating students who read, write in cursive, understand mathematical operations, and possess an exceptional sense of self-mastery.
The Summer Session
Ages 15 months to 6 yearsA relaxed summer rhythm of garden play, water, and practical life — open to current and visiting families across weekly sessions. The same prepared environments and caring guides, at a gentle summer tempo.
Garden and outdoor play, water work, art, and favorite practical-life materials — keeping the Montessori rhythm alive through summer.
Final dates, offerings, and rates are announced each spring. Enrollment is open to visiting families and subject to availability.
The best way to choose is to visit
Tour on a Thursday morning and see each prepared environment while the classrooms are at work. The Head of School will personally follow up within one business day.
