Fraser Woods Montessori School will host its January Open House for parents of prospective students from 6:30 pm to 8 pm on Thursday, January 30, at the school, 173 South Main Street.

For this open house, Fraser Woods will present a parent education experience known as The Montessori Journey. It is designed to show parents exactly what children experience in the Montessori classroom at all levels from early childhood through middle school.

Faculty, administrative staff, and the director of admissions will be available to conduct guided tours and provide information about the school’s four- or five-day toddler and preschool programs as well as full-day kindergarten through eighth grade programs and a new parent and child program, Little Bears for children 18 months to 3 years and a caregiver.

A Montessori education at Fraser Woods School includes a challenging curriculum encouraging competent, responsible, adaptive citizens who are lifelong learners and problem solvers.

Its modern 42,000-square-foot facility includes a central Zen garden, a gymnasium, and nature trails situated on an eight-acre campus. Tuition assistance is available.
