San Diego Montessori School Announces Enrollment for Brand New Summer Camp Beginning March 26

March 13, 2012 - PRLog -- Montessori American School (MAS), announces open enrollment for Summer camp. Enrollment for children, ages 2 through 6, will begin on March 26th, on a first come, first serve basis. It is best, however, to sign-up early because space is limited, and priority will be given to currently enrolled MAS students.

Located at 3604 Bonita Road, Montessori American School is well known for its attractive indoor-outdoor learning areas. Air conditioned classrooms open up to stimulating gardens and a well-equipped playground for the children to explore. As part of the comprehensive Montessori plan for learning, this year’s summer camp will provide children with a myriad of differentiated learning experiences.

“We are excited about our brand new summer camp program,” says Edith Gruener, principal of Montessori American. “We endeavor to provide your child with a hands-on experience, learning activities, arts & crafts, games, and lots of fun. Kids will love our themed camp, make new friends, and have a blast! All this within the traditional Montessori environment."

The traditional Montessori environment is a nurturing one; grouping children based on periods of development and encouraging them to develop a sense of self and community. This summer’s program is set to include hands-on, experiential learning, arts and crafts, creative play, games and many other learning opportunities that are in keeping with this tradition.

One parent recently said, “Our experience with the Montessori American School is nothing short of fabulous. The caring and nurturing nature of the owner and teachers made a foundational difference in the academic lives of our children…[Our children] continue to develop the sense of self and of community that is fostered at MAS.” (http://www.montessoriamerican.com/parents-comments.html)

Montessori American School has been named the Best Preschool in Chula Vista (http://www.montessoriamerican.com/about.html) by USLBA and is the only school that has been a four time award winner. Such local recognition affirms the school’s commitment to excellence in education and dedication to children; a standard that will be upheld in this year’s summer camp program.

Summer camp will be from July 2nd to July 31st. Hours are 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. It is important to note the school will accept 2 year olds who are not potty trained into the program. For more information about or to enroll in this year’s summer camp call (619) 422-1220.
