About Aidan

These Children Will Change the World

At Aidan Montessori, we believe that changing the world for the better begins in the classroom.

By raising children into adults who can overcome obstacles, communicate persuasively, lead with vision, adapt with agility, and care for their community, we can create a more open, innovative, and just society. 

Everything we do at Aidan is based on what we know about how children learn. 

We prepare students ages 18 months through grade 6 to shape the future as curious thinkers, creative explorers, and compassionate problem-solvers who are equipped to help build a better world.

Aidan students are...

CURIOUS
THINKERS

Children are born with an innate curiosity – and at Aidan, we protect and nurture that already-kindled flame. Here, ample open work time is filled with exciting opportunities for hands-on learning and self-discovery, empowering students to think, question, and follow their inspiration as far as it leads them. 

CREATIVE EXPLORERS

Here, students learn through active exploration within a carefully prepared environment. A “let’s go find out” atmosphere prevails as students seek the answers to their questions by experiencing the world.

COMPASSIONATE PROBLEM-SOLVERS

Aidan students learn to know themselves and others, seek solutions, and embrace their responsibility as part of a community. This experience prepares them to create the adults that they will become.

The commitment to community is evident in every single classroom, where children are encouraged to follow their internal sense of learning, but at the same time, guided through all the curricula they need to progress through grades.
