Welcome!
Welcome to Dovecrest Montessori Academy website. We hope you will be able to experience and learn about our culture as you read our mission and begin to understand the passion that motivates us to provide this educational opportunity to children.
We are a community of parents, faculty, administrators, board members, grandparents and friends, who working together share a common vision. The vision is to be the benchmark in early childhood globally.
While these goals may seem lofty at first glance, these children are our future. Here at Dovecrest Montessori Academy, we provide a rich, broad-based curriculum, which challenges the children academically as they work independently and collaboratively in multi-aged classrooms. Using didactic learning materials, designed to be responsive to a wide range of interests and skills, children are encouraged to explore a world of ideas, information and creativity. Our faculty is committed to meeting each child's need as they build the classroom community.
We care for children from 6 weeks to 6 years of age and before and after school children aged 5 to 7 years. We are open from 7:00am till 6:00pm. If you would like to visit, please contact us. We are happy to share what we do!

"If we can, when we have established individual discipline, arrange the children, sending each one to his own place, in order, trying to make them understand the idea that thus placed they look well, and that it is a good thing to be thus placed in order, that it is a good and pleasing arrangement in the room, this ordered and tranquil adjustment of theirs -- then their remaining in their places, quiet and silent, is the result of a species of lesson, not an imposition. To make them understand the idea, without calling their attention too forcibly to the practice, to have them assimilate a principle of collective order -- that is the important thing."
-- Dr. Maria Montessori
