The Hauppauge branch of the Montessori Learning Center offers morning and afternoon half-day programs with an open enrollment.
Its programs are based around Dr. Maria Montessori's teaching philosophies. Classes are "vertical grouped," where children ages two to five years are placed in the same classroom to develop fine and gross motor skills, focused attention and concentration through hands-on activities that engage the five senses.
The school accepts students with hearing impairments, spectrum disorders and other challenges.
