Language Immersion Options
Children under the age of six absorb language effortlessly, which is why we are pleased to offer bilingual environments.
We offer-
- Spanish Immersion program in Toddler and Children's House
- Bi-lingual program in Elementary
In our Spanish Immersion program, children learn both Spanish and English literacy skills, however, the prevailing language spoken throughout the day is Spanish. The overall emphasis on Spanish rapidly increases fluency, as children feel naturally compelled to communicate with their Spanish-speaking guides. Learn more about our Spanish Immersion program here.
Changing the world, one student at a time
We are a school where children find the joy in learning — and thus make it possible for them to continue learning for the rest of their lives.
To think mathematically.
To solve problems.
To create things.
To encounter great literature that inspires their character development.
To build themselves as capable, efficacious beings.
To place themselves in history and in society.
To spark meaningful friendships and deep personal values that last a lifetime.
Our goal at Guidepost Montessori is to serve each individual child, to help them realize their limitless potential, and the opportunities they will have to create real and lasting change throughout their lifetime.
Hear from our Prosperity Families
A very homey environment where children thrive. And don't want to go back home after school ends!
My eldest has been going there for 3 years and he loves it. Staff is very nice and so are teachers!!! We love this place.
"We couldn't be happier with Guidepost!"
We couldn't be happier with Guidepost! After having our daughter in a traditional preschool setting and seeing her struggle, we decided to research different schools that could enrich her life and help with the building blocks for a successful life. We found both and more here! On a whim, we attended an open house and were immediately impressed with the atmosphere and environment. The level of dedication from all of the staff was apparent as we moved through the school and learned about the different programs. Ultimately, we enrolled, and our daughter couldn't be happier! We are learning about her school life and how to help her along, and she is thriving! If you haven't visited an open house, please do to see how great this school really is!
"The best decision we have made"
Enrolling our daughter at Guidepost has been THE BEST decision we have made. We were nervous because she is so young and due to COVID, hadn't been around many other children or had any experience in a school environment but the administrators and guides at Guidepost were welcoming, patient, helpful and kind. After only 3 weeks, our daughter LOVES school and can't wait to go each morning. And we see her developing new skills in front of our eyes. We could not be happier with our experience at Guidepost!
