Opened in 2007 Victory Heights Montessori offers a five-day Preschool and Kindergarten Montessori Program for children between 3 and 6 years of age. Preschoolers attend our program from 8:30 until 11:30, Monday through Friday. Our Kindergarteners stay until 2:30 each day.
Our Mission:
Our mission is to provide an environment, based on the Montessori method, that is rich in activities which involve each child in his own education and match his interests at different stages in development, and to guide the child in these activities as we observe his unique needs and talents.
We are proud part of the STRIDE Program, a non-profit in Winchester that has been serving our community since 1968.
