At Apple Montessori School, we believe that the school community is responsible for discovering and nurturing the unique individual potential of each child.
Our curriculum provides a sound academic background while stimulating and challenging each child to meet his or her own particular needs and learning pace.
Our classrooms are rich with Montessori materials and supporting activities to promote intellectual as well as social growth.
We instill through example and action a love of learning, a strong work ethic, creativity, respect and compassion for others.
Apple Montessori was founded by Rex and Jane Bailey in 1971.
Our young but rich history is the result of the initial vision and determination of Jane Bailey, a Montessori teacher who emigrated from Scotland, who knew the importance of an early childhood education. Unhappy with the traditional approach to learning and motivated by her own young children, she opened one of the first Montessori schools in northern New Jersey.
Inspiring a love of learning for thousands of NJ children for 45
years: Middle States Accredited Apple Montessori Schools
offers child-inspired infant, toddler, preschool and kindergarten
programs for children ages six months through six years. We offer
15 convenient locations in north and central New Jersey. Our Wayne
Nevins school includes an elementary program.
Our difference: We are devoted to nurturing the whole child
intellectually, socially, emotionally, and beyond. It is the core
of all we do. Scientific research confirms that Montessori children
have an advantage not only academically, but also in social and
emotional development. Children learn more rapidly from birth to
age 6 than any other time in their lives, and our approach makes
the most of that critical learning time with proven curriculum and
enrichment programs. By recognizing that no two children are the
same, our approach cultivates the unique potential of each and
every child in a caring, safe, and supportive school
environment.Safety-certified schools: Your child`s health and
safety are paramount.
Our schools and staff have been certified by Secure Education
Consultants, headed by former secret service agents for the White
House. We work diligently to enforce the procedures outlined by the
State of New Jersey`s School Safety and Security best practice
guidelines. Our protocols include ongoing staff training, regular
drills, state-of-the-art fingerprint technology, advanced
surveillance systems, and hospital grade germ sanitizing machines
to reduce 99.9% of germs and viruses.
Our team: Maria Montessori believed that teachers are most
successful when they embrace the idea that children are innately
curious and give them the freedom to explore their own passions at
their own pace. Our warm and wonderful staff takes great pride in
encouraging the big and small milestones that happen each day for
your child.
The Montessori advantage:
Children follow their own passions at their own pace
Multi-age classrooms to encourage peer-to-peer teaching and
learning

principles to life

Montessori method

Excellent school where the children are encouraged to learn at their own pace. My daughter is reading fluently at age four and Spanish is being taught to her daily. A superb early introduction to academics, the children are given age-appropriate homework at age four which promotes discipline and responsibility. Teachers are very caring and I like that she has the same teacher from age 2 through kindergarten.
