Our mission is to educate, enrich, and encourage children to reach their fullest potential as curious, independent, socially responsible, kind, happy individuals.
We offer Montessori schooling for children aged from 2 to to 6 Years. Besides regular programs, there are enrichment programs and extended daycare programs at Norbeck Montessori.
Our Pre-Primary Program in Rockville is designed with early preschool age (two- and three-year-old) children in mind. Songs, stories, simplified Montessori materials, and a gentler pace foster the natural curiosity that toddlers possess. This is a two-year-old preschool your child will love!
At Norbeck Montessori in Rockville, your child will have the unique ability to take in everything in their environment, both consciously and unconsciously. Your preschool child uses this information to construct themselves as they develop into independent, thoughtful beings. Maria Montessori described this as the “absorbent mind.”
Kindergarten is a special time in a young child’s life, but if you have a child between the ages of four and six, you may be wondering about their kindergarten readiness. Many Rockville parents struggle to decide whether to keep their child in preschool for another year or move them up to kindergarten-level work. At Norbeck Montessori, we offer the best of both options!
