Horizons at Lexington Montessori School

Serving students from Waltham, Lexington, and local suburbs, Horizons at Lexington Montessori School is the first Montessori school in the national Horizons network.  We are honored to host pre-school and elementary students for 6 weeks each summer!

HORIZONS LMS offers the first formal introduction to a school setting for many of our 3 and 4 year olds, who gain valuable social skills within a nurturing, child- centered environment.  Our curriculum follows the HORIZONS National standards, while incorporating a Montessori approach.  Literacy and math are central components of the program and a reading specialist conducts both individualized and small group instruction. Elementary students have the opportunity to choose topics of interest to guide their learning.

All students will learn how to swim and upon their return each summer, acquire new skills and progress  through the improvement levels estabilshed by certified instructors. Off campus field trips and artisit -in-residence visits are also offered each summer. The sense of community is carried beyond the summer and HORIZONS families are welcomed back to campus during the school year in an effort to remain connected.

Our students begin their HORIZONS journey in Children's House, move on to the Elementary Building and complete their tenure in the Middle School.  The 4 acre LMS campus provides outdoor space, which includes a Greenhouse that serves as an exciting teaching and learning tool.  Continuity is the key to our students' success.  The generosity and support from the community at large, allows us to provide effective programming, meals and supplies for our deserving students each summer!
