In 1968, a group of parents interested in providing a Montessori education to their children founded the King's Wood Montessori School in Foxboro, Massachusetts. More than 40 years later, King's Wood remains a parent-owned, non-profit school serving children from over fifteen communities in Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
Supported by a staff with over 75 years of experience at the school, King's Wood is dedicated to providing a rich, nurturing and experiential learning environment. Here, children ages 2.9 to 6 years have the opportunity to develop a foundation of intellectual, social, and physical skills and experiences that will serve them throughout their lives:
- An ability to think and work independently, and then teach others
- An expectation and love of challenges
- Self-confidence built through learning, doing, creating, and achieving
- The joy of exploring and discovering
- An ability to concentrate
- An appreciation for nature
- Growth as a friend and member of a group
