Nourishing both the mind and the body is one of the principles of Montessori Education. For a child to be successful, both the body and the mind must be satisfied. To this end, our lunch and snack program will be organic in nature with an emphasis on whole foods whenever possible. An organic bakery makes our breads and baked goods and a caterer specializing in healthy children’s meals provides our main lunch menu. Through these two sources we are able to provide a natural means to satisfying the dietary requirements of growing children. We are also able to accommodate special dietary requirements and restrictions if requested.
