Making a World of Difference

The Montessori Method
We believe that children reach their full potential through a cooperative atmosphere designed to allow young learners to explore.

Exceeding Expectations
Fernwood Montessori students have been exceeding expectations on our school’s state report card since 2012.

Outdoor Spaces
Our outdoor classrooms, gardens, and greenhouse help children appreciate nature and build relationships with the natural world.
