Description

Valley Forge Kinder House Montessori School was founded in 1977 by Susan and Edward Kelly. The Kelly’s, already committed to the Montessori Method, wanted an excellent school for their own child. Susan, an AMI trained teacher, started the first class in a church in Wayne, PA with her one-year old daughter in tow.

Thirty three years and four more Kelly children later, the same focus holds. The Kelly’s and the faculty of VFKH Montessori School are dedicated to providing each child with an outstanding AMI Montessori education. The curriculum offered is the “Montessori Method.” We have programs for children ages 2½ years old through Grade 6. Our environment nurtures your child to continue to grow at his/her own pace within an individualized learning framework.

Besides Language, Math, Geometry, Cultural Studies and Geography, the children also work with activities that develop and strengthen their muscular coordination, motor skills, and concentration, and enhance their sensory awareness. The children also have many opportunities to develop their social skills. Children leave our Montessori program with strong, fundamental academic skills; and statistics show Montessori children continue to excel through their academic years.
