Academic programming
The Nest at Anderson Mill offers a welcoming, stimulating environment that cultivates your child’s independence, self-esteem, and social & academic potential, with an individualized curriculum that will lay the foundation for a lifelong love of learning.
Our infant environments incorporate sign language which aids children in their ability to communicate before they have language and exposes them early on to more than one language. All of our programs incorporate Spanish curriculum daily. Our teachers who are fluent Spanish speakers incorporate this dual language in all aspects of the classroom throughout each day.

Every material in a Montessori classroom supports an aspect of child development, creating a match between the child’s natural interests and available activities. Children can learn through their own experience and at their own pace. By teaching one child at a time, or in small groups, teachers can meet students where they are. If a child is ready for more rigorous work than the rest of the class, they can pursue it. Allowing the child to learn at their own pace is one of the foundational principles of Montessori.
Elementary (Ages 7 years – 12 years)
6 to 12 years multi-age classroom
Full-day program $1500/mo
Breakfast, lunch, afternoon snack, and a weekly after-school soccer program included
What sets Montessori apart in the Elementary years, ages 6 – 12, is the individually paced curriculum that challenges children academically and safeguards their well-being and sense of self. Being part of a respectful community, they learn to question, think critically, and take responsibility for their own learning; skills that will support them in later education and in life. As with all Montessori levels, the Elementary program is based on the belief that children learn best through movement and work with their hands, and provides cognitive, social, and emotional support to help them reach their full potential.
