Welcome to Okotoks Montessori Preschool
& Kindergarten
Okotoks Montessori offers Preschool and Kindergarten programs for a unique learning environment founded on the principles developed by Dr. Maria Montessori.
"The environment should reveal the child, not mould him."
- Maria Montessori
Okotoks Montessori School is a place of discovery, curiosity, respect and enthusiasm, learning language, mathematics, art and humanities, while stressing life skills; like problem solving, courteous behaviour and self expression.
Our results: happy, confident and well-educated children - ready to embrace first grade.

Why Okotoks Montessori Preschool
The Montessori learning environment is based on the cognitive, behavioural, social, physical and emotional development of the child, the 'whole' child. A Montessori classroom exists for the development of the child at his/her own pace; it is child-centred learning at its best.
What Parents Say About Us
Our children are almost done their first year and have progressed in leaps and bounds. The teachers are so great with the kids, can’t imagine having them anywhere else. We are so grateful to Miss Brown and all the teachers at Okotoks Montessori
