Founded in 1973, Ellesmere Montessori School has been serving children and families for over 45 years. Our private school is nestled within the walls of West Ellesmere Community Church in Scarborough, Ontario.
Our bright and sunny classrooms allow for an easy flow between the three different environments, helping to build a strong school community. Fundamental to this community is the mutual commitment to the Montessori principles between our school and our families.
Our curriculum and activities are based on the educational pedagogy of Dr. Maria Montessori and guided by the principles of the Association Montessori Internationale (AMI).
