![]() The Academy is an independent, co-educational school for students in kindergarten through eighth grade. The school offers a traditional and accelerated academic program, rich in the arts and music. Class sizes are small, enabling academic cohesiveness while also accommodating individual academic needs.
The school has a warm family atmosphere. The school community is diverse – ethnically, culturally, and socio-economically – and this range of ideas and experiences is celebrated at the school every day. Students get to know each other across age and background differences to build a tight community, and many friendships are formed that last well beyond their years at The Academy.
Tours are given every Thursday from 9:00 – 11:00am. Please call to reserve your space.

![]() There are still a few openings for the 2012-13 school year in Applegarden Montessori School’s afternoon preschool. Located in Montclair, Applegarden has been providing a high quality Montessori education for preschool children for 29 years. Our unique afternoon program is especially popular with parents who want to spend time with their children during the mornings and give them a special afternoon experience with other children. The class hours from 1:30 to 4:30 can be extended from as early as 1 p.m. to as late as 6, allowing a working parent a little more time and your child a lovely play date with friends after the school session. Our preschool and extended-day programs offer personal, prepared environments for the child. Here freedom of self-expression and exploration lead to learning experiences that develop in harmony with the child’s own tendencies toward growth, independence, creativity, self-discipline, and social as well as inner awareness. You will enjoy our intimate setting in a cozy house, our small class size and excellent student/teacher ratio (22 children with 3 teachers) in a beautiful garden setting. Special art, music and Spanish instruction enrich our already extensive Montessori curriculum. If interested, call us at 510-339-9666 or visit our website at: www.applegardenschool.org. You may also attend our winter open house events, which will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. on Sunday, January 6th, and on Saturday, February 2nd. No appointment is necessary and children are welcome. Applegarden is located at 5667 Thornhill Dr. in Oakland. A location map is available on our website. |

Fountainhead Montessori School (FMS) is dedicated to the education of children in an environment designed to stimulate and develop the child’s joy of learning. The child learns to choose from a wide variety of academic, cultural, artistic, and self-care activities. The Montessori philosophy leads to the development of a child’s strong sense of self-esteem, dignity, independence, self-direction, and awareness of the community. Social and emotional development is fostered in a nurturing atmosphere. Fountainhead is a non-profit company that has been serving children since 1972 and offers flexible programs for children ages 18 months to 6 years, depending on location. Teachers are Montessori credentialed and many have years of early childhood experience. Flexible Schedules FMS offers highly flexible schedules. Children can attend any days as long as they go to class 2 or more days per week. However, we highly encourage a 3 day a week program as it allows for more structure for the child and a cohesive learning environment. Schedule an observation today!!
