Programs
Parents may enroll their children in one of the following programs:
Morning Preschool:
8:30-11:30 Daily
Who's eligible:
Students ages 2.5 through 6
Habitat’s program meets five days a week. All children
attend a morning session from 8:30-11:30 a.m. in one of our
two mixed-age classrooms (ages range from 2.5 to 6). The
maximum number of students per session is 20, allowing us
to maintain a 10 to 1 student/teacher ratio, which we
believe provides the optimal balance between enabling our
teachers to give our children individual attention and
encouraging our children to grow in independence. Siblings
of different ages often enjoy being placed in the same
classroom.
Extended Day Preschool: 8:30-1:30
(extended days), 8:30-11:30 (other days)
Who's eligible: Students at least in
their second year at Habitat. Other parents may request
consideration for their children.
The extended day program allows students to receive an
extra two hours on Montessori education, led by one of our
credentialed Montessori teachers. Parents may choose
between a two-day or four-day extended day option.
Kindergarten: 8:30-1:30 Daily
Who's eligible: Children of
kindergarten age with two or more years of Montessori
experience, or who have permission of the instructor.
Kindergarten students attend school daily from 8:30 to
1:30. From 8:30-11:30, they participate in a mixed age
classroom. From 11:30 to 1:30, they are with kindergarten
students only. They eat lunch at school and explore more
advanced topics such as democracy and the science of
apples. Our kindergarten program fulfills all of the state
requirements for kindergarten programs, and children should
leave it with the all the skills necessary to enter first
grade.
Summer Camp: Habitat Summer Camp is
available to all currently enrolled Habitat students,
alumni, and incoming students age 3-6. Our Montessori
summer camp meets at our Indianapolis location at 73rd and
Hoover.
Toddler Program: We are currently developing a
Montessori toddler program for children ages 18 months
through 36 months. To a reserve a spot for your toddler in
our program, or to learn more information about our toddler
program, please call us at 726-5584 or fill out this form so that we can
keep let you know when the toddler program is up and
