Fraser Woods Montessori School, located in Newtown, is an independent school for children 18 months to 8th grade. A Montessori education embraces the whole child, the body as well as the mind. At Fraser Woods, classes in art, music, physical education, language and technology complement the main subject areas of traditional learning and support the annual Cultural Program which gives students an opportunity to work hands-on in the arts. Past Cultural Program themes have included dance, opera, storytelling, and Shakespeare and have helped students to develop a deep appreciation of the richness of many cultures.

  A Montessori education at Fraser Woods School includes a challenging curriculum encouraging competent, responsible, adaptive citizens who are lifelong learners and problem solvers. The school’s goal is to stir the child’s passion for asking questions about their world. That curiosity allows him or her to go beyond set limits and provides opportunities for advanced discovery and the pursuit of full potential.

  On Saturday, April 14 from 10 to 11:30 a.m. Fraser Woods is hosting an Open House and is now accepting applications for the September 2012 - June 2013 school year. Private tours are also available by appointment.

The school is located at 173 South Main Street, Norwalk. Contact Alison Kistner in the Office of Admissions at 203.426.3390 x305 or [email protected] to RSVP for the Open House or to schedule a private tour. FraserWoods.com.
