For more than 50 years, Kennedy Heights Montessori Center has inspired a love of learning in children from toddler age through kindergarten. Founded on principles developed by Maria Montessori, KHMC is dedicated to providing a nurturing and supportive educational environment for eager young learners to help prepare them for lifelong success.
The Montessori educational environment emphasizes hands-on exploration in our little learners. Montessori has so much to offer! When we began looking for a preschool, we had quite a wish list. We wanted a school that taught our daughter independence, responsibility, and life skills, but it was just as important to us that she was in a safe environment with highly qualified teachers that embraced diversity.

Timeline PhotosFred Rogers spoke to a parenting magazine in 1985 about how children might react when it is time for them to go school for the first time. Some children will be excited to join the world of the bigger kids in a school setting, while others may be nervous and regress in some ways, like needing more hugs or thumb sucking.
