Since 1997, Cornerstone Montessori Children's House has provided families in and around the Hillsboro School District an individualized preschool program that meets the unique developmental needs of every child we serve. Families across Washington County - including North Plains, Hillsboro, Forest Grove, Cornelius, and Banks - enjoy a comfortable, family-like atmosphere where their 2 1/2 - 6 year old children use engaging, multi-sensory materials to teach themselves in a uniquely Montessori hands-on manner. The low student-teacher ratio at our school also helps ensure that each child receives the individual attention they deserve. We offer an activity filled day that encourages the students' intellectual, social, physical, creative and moral development in a caring, nurturing environment. Each exciting discovery they make helps develop their independence, inner-discipline, and self-esteem. While they are having fun learning about math, geography, science, language, art, and music, the children are discovering something much more important - a love for learning itself.
