Wildwood Montessori School with Childcare recently held an open house on August 30th to celebrate the start of their second school year. The Montessori School’s vision is, “To create a sustainable, rural-based, quality Montessori school with childcare that is the pride of Montevideo and the Upper Minnesota River Valley.” The school with childcare has a long-term goal of serving 42 students and eight to nine staff with a part-time director. They welcome children from the ages of infancy through six years old; infants are six weeks old – 16 months old, toddlers are 16 months old – 33 months old, and preschoolers are 33 months old – six years old. “We all love each other. We all love our families. We’re here for the kids. We’re here to nurture,” said Jennifer Johnson, the teacher for the infant room. School days for all children at Wildwood Montessori are from 8:30 am – 3 pm; they also offer before care from 7:30 am – 8:30 am and aftercare from 3 pm – 5:30 pm.
