One of the most amazing characteristics of Evergreen Academy Montessori in Issaquah is their commitment to giving each child individualized attention. They recognize that each child is unique, with their own set of demands and learning style. I strongly suggest this school to other families looking for a nurturing and supportive environment for their children. Emilia Both my children have attended this preschool since they were 3 months old. We have been in multiple classrooms and have had the opportunity to experience a lot of awesome teachers. The school is clean and organized. Children are empowered to learn how to pick up and do basic things for themselves, learning independence. They learn by doing “work” that is interesting and challenging. My kids love it. It’s more than a daycare for our family. Danielle and Eric Evergreen Academy in Issaquah is wonderful! The teachers and administrators deeply care about the children and their education. The quality of the curriculum and responsiveness to parents are excellent. My child is thriving there. We couldn’t be happier with our choice of child care. Emily This daycare has great teachers who genuinely care about the students. The curriculum provides children with a gentle intro to rules, schedules, and trying to tackle tasks and problems on their own. Noah We really value the Montessori curriculum and the benefits of the mixed ages in the Primary classroom. We also appreciate the option to participate in extracurricular activities in a familiar space without extra logistics. We love the close community feel that this daycare exudes, stemming from teachers knowing children who aren’t even in their classroom and everyone caring for everyone. Kimora Watch your child grow Our focus is making sure your child is happy, thriving, and ready for what comes next. The magic of Montessori is hands-on learning that builds your child’s confidence. When children are confident and independent, they are far more likely to succeed in all aspects of life. Explore Our Programs Infants Toddlers Primary After School The Key Elements of Montessori: Mixed-Age Classrooms In Montessori schools, children of different ages learn together in the same classroom. Older students can help the younger ones, and younger children can learn by watching and working with the older children. It is like having a big family in the classroom! Children make friends, learn from each other, and create a strong community. They also stay with the same teacher for several years. This helps the teacher develop a strong bond with each child and understand what they need to grow and learn. Uninterrupted Work Time Montessori students have long, uninterrupted periods of time to work with materials that meet their interests. This gives them the chance to focus deeply on their work and learn at their own pace. They can take their time, be creative, and solve problems without feeling rushed. The 3-hour work period allows the children to fully engage in what they are doing, helping them build concentration and develop important skills. It also lets them enjoy the learning process without having to stop and switch to something else too quickly. Montessori Materials Our students enjoy expressing themselves and learning about creativity. They explore music, painting, acting, and dancing. This helps them appreciate beauty and discover their own unique ways to be creative. Highly Trained Teachers Montessori teachers receive unique training. They watch their students to see what they are interested in and when they are ready to learn something new. This helps teachers give lessons at just the right time. It makes learning exciting and meaningful for each child. Teachers also help their students become independent by allowing them to do things on their own. They know just how much help to give, so their students feel confident and think for themselves. Health, Safety, and Communications At Evergreen Academy Montessori we deeply value safety and trust. Student safety is supported through multiple layers of security, including controlled keypad access, secured entry points, and camera monitoring. Our location also offers an added level of reassurance, with both police and fire emergency services located just minutes from our school. Please see all the ways we ensure the safety of our children and regular communications with our families.
