Administration

The school is organized as a non-profit corporation that is governed by a Board of Directors, which consists of parents, staff and members of the local community who volunteer their time in the continued development of Cedar Montessori School. The Head Of School of the school is responsible for day-to-day operation of the school. All major decisions are with the help of the Curriculum Council Advisory Board, the Board of Directors and the Parent Advisory Board.
The school offers three main educational programs and all day care for children in Collier County: Toddler, Primary, Lower and Upper Elementary.

The Infant/Toddler program handles children ages 18 months through 3 years old. "Graduates" of this program will be phased into the preschool program as each child is individually ready for the new challenges.

The Primary program has three classrooms all "taught" by trained, certified Montessori Directresses. The program is sanctioned and uses the complete Montessori philosophy, and genuine Montessori classroom materials.

The Elementary program is headed by an AMI Directress with many years of experience. The class will work with children ages 6 years through 12 years, using both the Montessori philosophy and genuine Montessori Elementary materials.
