Healthy bodies mean alert brains that are ready to learn.
Our snacks and lunches are freshly prepared daily by our on-staff chef. She diligently plans each meal incorporating a variety of flavors, nutrients, textures, and colors making our meals colorful, fun, and tasty. The vast majority of our meals are prepared with natural and fresh ingredients, avoiding pre-processed foods whenever possible.
Meal times are great opportunities for our students to practice the Grace & Courtesy lessons learned in the Montessori classroom. Our students get to independently set the table, serve their own food, and clean up after themselves, all while interacting and having pleasant conversations with one another and their teachers.
Eating together and using family-style serving encourages children to try new foods. If your child has been a little reluctant to eat at home, we are confident that he will eventually become more open to trying new foods and meals after he spends some time with us.
