Learning Garden Montessori School

Welcome to Learning Garden Montessori School!

Nestled at the heart of the vibrant neighborhoods of Hillman City, Columbia City, and Seward Park in Seattle, Learning Garden Montessori School has been a cherished part of our community for over twenty years. We offer both morning and afternoon programs designed to nurture young minds and hearts.

At Learning Garden, we embrace the Montessori philosophy, which means we focus on learning through exploration and discovery. Our curriculum is rich and varied, with a special emphasis on:

• Nature studies: Children get to explore the wonders of the natural world.
• Science and math: We make these subjects fun and engaging!
• Art: Creativity is encouraged, allowing children to express themselves.
• Problem-solving: Kids learn to think critically and find solutions.
• Independence and respect: We teach children to be confident and considerate.

But that’s not all! Learning Garden is more than just a school; it’s a community hub. We love to get involved with our neighbors by organizing events like neighborhood cleanups and partnering with local organizations, such as the Kin On Asian retirement center.

Our school also doubles as a city farm, where children can roll up their sleeves and dive into hands-on activities. They can:

• Observe bugs and plants in their natural habitat.
• Rake leaves and learn about the changing seasons.
• Grow their own vegetables and flowers, watching them flourish!

We believe in supporting families, too. Parents receive guidance and education to help nurture their children’s emotional growth, fostering a strong and connected community.

Join us at Learning Garden Montessori School, where learning is a joyful adventure!
