"Avalon strives to provide a dynamic & nurturing environment where learning takes place naturally. We encourage our students to continually challenge themselves. We are a small, independent, co-educational school that supports the Montessori philosophy. Our objective is to guide the children with respect and understanding, developing in them a love of learning that will last a lifetime."
"In nurturing the balance of the individual child a love is found. A love for kindness, wisdom, knowledge, repect and character. Our small multi age classrooms provide a rich learning environment designed to help children develop focus, independance, exploration skills, responsiblity and a sense of order. Our program instills confidence, independent thought and a lifelong love of learning."
"Founded in 1999, School Directors Sherry VanDerKooi, Angie Samis and Christine Kerry started a school where the needs of the children were the number one priority and integrity was a key element in the daily operation of the school. All three Directors are still actively involved in the teaching and day to day operations. We are an intentionally small montessori school with a mission to provide quality education that embraces the unique characteristics of each and every child."
"Over time we build partnerships with our families, by the time children graduate grade 8 students, staff and parents have all formed a deep and meaningful connection that doesn't end at graduation. Students, parents and staff continue their relationships beyond the elementary years. We continue to mentor, support, cheer for and celebrate together."
"We value diversity, and are an inclusive school that encourages collaboration, cooperative learning and moral development. Our students are educated in a way that ensures opportunities to achieve, be challenged, learn and find happiness in their work. It is the individual needs of each student and the integrity of the Montessori philosophy that are the guiding principles of our programme."
"1. We have fun! We have spirit weeks, theme days, special events and parent socials.
2. Students are encouraged to join together to form their own peer groups, clubs, societies and teams.
3. We are small. Our elementary school has about 65 students.
4. Our phys ed program includes sports like cross country, track and field, skiing, snowboarding, tennis and golf.
5. In the spring we put on a school wide play and perform it at a local theater."
