RiverRun Montessori

Montessori at the Old Schoolhouse is a diverse and engaging educational partnership in Tivoli, NY, founded in 2004 by experienced teachers Anna and Josephine Salvatico. With a child-centered approach, the school nurtures a love of learning and responsibility, fostering intellectual, physical, moral, artistic, emotional, and academic excellence in each child. The classrooms are designed according to Montessori principles, decorated with natural materials, and situated on a family farm, offering a rural setting for gardening, nature walks, and interactions with animals. Offering half-day classes for students aged 18 months to 6 years, Montessori at the Old Schoolhouse provides a mixed-age environment that encourages younger children to learn from older ones and older children to reinforce their knowledge and skills. The school also offers a flexible summer camp program. With small class sizes, individual attention, and a warm and welcoming atmosphere, the school has received praise for its teachers' flexibility, straightforwardness, and ability to create a safe and nurturing environment for children to dream, explore, learn, and play.Generated from the website
