One continuous path, from first steps to sixth grade.
At Countryside, a child doesn't move between disconnected programs — they grow along a single Montessori continuum, each stage preparing them for the next. Explore every level below.
A level for every stage of childhood.
Toddler
The first taste of independence. Practical life, language, and movement unfold in a gentle, carefully prepared environment where small hands learn to do real work.
Explore Toddler →3 – 6 years · Pre-K & KindergartenPrimary
The heart of Montessori. Hands-on materials build reading, math, and deep concentration, and children leave more than kindergarten-ready — they leave capable and curious.
Explore Primary →Grades 1 – 3Lower Elementary
Big questions and hands-on discovery. Reading, writing, and mathematics take root alongside growing independence and real responsibility for one's own work.
Explore Lower Elementary →Grades 4 – 6Upper Elementary
Research, collaboration, and academic depth. Students test and defend ideas, take on leadership, and build the confidence and skills to prepare for what comes next.
Explore Upper Elementary →Summer & Extended-Day
Enrichment and care that extend the Countryside day and year — purposeful, engaging, and true to our approach, without the daycare feel.
