The Staff
Spondeo Preschool’s success rests on the shoulders of an outstanding team of highly educated Early Childhood Specialists.  Our lead teachers, in addition to their college degrees are Montessori Certified. Their passion to teach within the domains of the Montessori Method sets the ground work for their students’ overall success.  Spondeo Preschool is proud to provide a wonderful establishment for the overall positive contribution to society through the education of young children.

Our entire staff continues to take courses addressing the most current research in Early Childhood Education and Early Childhood Development. This includes, but is not limited to, implementation of research based information, use of Positive Discipline - a respectful and friendly management technique for children - and the lowest student to teacher ratio as mandated by National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC).

Additional Curriculum Highlights
In addition to the prepared classroom environment, the following subjects occur on a weekly basis:

Toddler & Parent/Caregiver Play Classes
Spondeo Preschool welcomes students less than 18 months of age, accompanied by their parent or caregiver, to play classes.  These classes, held in our beautifully arranged classrooms, allow parent/caregivers the opportunity to play and observe their child in a group setting.  Specific topics of play, socialization and other early childhood subject matter will be included throughout the sessions.

Parent Support
Our passion to teach goes beyond our students.  We offer courses and support to parents, grandparents, guardians, caregivers and anyone that has the precious presence of a young child in their life.  We feel that it is our responsibility to provide high quality educational courses to enhance your relationship with your child.  With this knowledge and proper practice, the child will experience a comfortable security between school and home.  This security will provide the base for an optimal and a successful educational foundation.
Please ask for the current scheduled courses.
