We are still accepting applications for Toddlers and Preschool for the 2012-13 school year.

Celebrating 35 years!

Montessori Children’s House of Durham (MCHD) lays foundations for intellectual, moral, emotional, physical, social, and spiritual competence in our students. We shape young people who have a sense of the grand order of the universe, who can assume their rights and responsibilities, find joy in learning, and who delight among the peoples and in the places where they live.

To accomplish these goals, MCHD implements classic Montessori principles of respect for the child’s capabilities, preparation of the environment in which the child can be successful, and observation of each learner’s style and progress.

Founded in 1976, MCHD became the first school in NC to be Accredited by the American Montessori Society, in 1996.
