Partnership Spotlight: Stronger Together

Before and after care

Montessori Children’s Center has partnered with SPARK Expert Enrichment to bring exceptional enrichment experiences directly to our students — no drop-off, no pickup, no extra stops in your day. 

Every art, yoga, dance, and STEM class listed above is led by a SPARK specialty instructor: a vetted expert in their field who also meets our same background-check and safety standards as our core Montessori staff. Your child gets the best of both worlds — specialized instruction from a true expert, in the safe, familiar environment of our campus, with our team present throughout.

What the SPARK partnership means for your family: 

  • Specialty instructors with real expertise in art, yoga, dance, and STEM/robotics — not generalists 
  • All instructors background-checked and cleared to the same standard as our own staff 
  • Classes held right on campus, built into the after-school day 
  • A rotating, age-appropriate curriculum that keeps kids engaged all year 
  • No additional transportation, scheduling, or logistics for parents
