Bala House Montessori School
Description
Since 1969, Bala House Montessori has provided an intimate learning environment where children are respected, the curriculum is challenging, and the classrooms are welcoming and peaceful. In partnership with families, our result is confident, happy children who carry a love of learning with them for a lifetime. The Montessori method of education is grounded in the concept that children are motivated by both a natural curiosity and a love of knowledge. A Montessori school cultivates a child’s innate desire to learn by setting up an environment that allows them to learn at their own pace, according to their own capabilities. Children acquiring basic skills in this instinctive way gain an early enthusiasm for learning, while developing independence, self-discipline, and respect for others.

Bala House is a wonderful school where children are given the tools and space to learn and grow. Through the Montessori method, children develop independent learning skills and leave the school with the curiosity and love for learning. Kids stay in the same classroom from day 1 to year 3 which really allows them to gain comfort and mature. What really makes it shine is the community that surrounds it. From the Fall Festival to the Bala Gala to International Night, the community really comes together to provide the children a loving environment to blossom.

A fantastic school that sparks curiosity and teaches kindness and compassion. It also sets kids up for tremendous academic success as they move on to elementary school and beyond.

We have spent 9 years here between our kids, and have felt that the academic, social, and self-reliance skills they built at Bala house placed them ahead of their peers entering elementary school.

Bala House is an incredibly nurturing, caring, and inspiring place. I couldn’t be happier with the staff and teachers at this school. Every day, my 3-year-old comes home full of knowledge and excitement for learning. The teachers go out of their way to communicate, listen, and care for all of the kids. Couldn’t be happier with Bala House Montessori!

The experience of my son having friends with him for three years and two years was invaluable and sets him up for the best long-term relationships. He had the ability to be the “oldest” and help youngers, which was so developmentally valuable. The faculty and staff at Bala House are such an important part of my son’s childhood and my earlier parenting. And the parent friends that I made over three full years at Bala House have become close parts of my community. On the first day of first grade, my son’s teacher emailed me to say “James was so helpful and caring to the other kids. It really stood out to me.” That’s Bala House.
