L'Enfant Montessori is affiliated with My French Classes (Les classes du samedi), the French Saturday School for the Washington, DC metro area.
How L'Enfant Montessori came to life
L’Enfant Montessori School was founded by a group of parents living in the Washington DC region who wanted to provide their children with the best possible bilingual early childhood educational experience.
Following the inspiration provided and leveraging the community built by the very successful French Saturday School - My French Classes, a heritage language school that aims to support French-speaking families in the NOVA and DC Metro Region who want to maintain and increase the knowledge of French for their children enrolled in American weekday schools.
To further strengthen the local Francophone community, the idea was to apply the lessons learned to a weekday school that would welcome young children from 2 to 6 years old. The new school focuses on offering:
- a full language immersion curriculum, so that its students become bilingual in English and French, and
- a beautiful learning environment inspired by the Montessori philosophy that would foster each child’s love of learning.
This project came to life in 2019 thanks to the support of a wonderful dedicated and highly motivated team and based on the shoulders of a strong and determined community of parents.
