Fraser Woods Montessori School Open House

Fraser Woods
Montessori School Open House “The Montessori Journey” Set



Fraser Woods Montessori
School will host its January Open House for parents of prospective students
from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm on Thursday, January 30th at the school, 173 South Main
Street in Newtown.  



For this Open House, Fraser Woods will present a parent education
experience known as The Montessori Journey. It is designed to show parents
exactly what their children experience in the Montessori classroom at all
levels from Early Childhood through Middle School. We believe parents will find
it immensely rewarding. This powerful event provides insight into the
transitions and continuity of Montessori education, and enhances parents'
understanding of how and what a student learns in the Montessori classroom. It
will be a wonderful opportunity to observe, work and learn.

Faculty, administrative staff and the Director of Admissions will be available
to conduct guided tours and provide information about the school's 4 or 5 day
Toddler and preschool programs as well as full day kindergarten through eighth
grade programs and their new Parent and Child program, Little Bears for
children 18 mos. - 3 years and a caregiver.

at Fraser Woods School includes a challenging curriculum encouraging competent,
responsible, adaptive citizens who are lifelong learners and problem
solvers.Their goal is to stir a child’s passion for asking questions about
their world. That curiosity allows him/her to go beyond set limits and provides
opportunities for advanced discovery and the pursuit of their full potential.

education and computer technology.
