Bilingual Montessori at the Jersey Shore
Welcome to Dahlia Montessori!
Dahlia is a Spanish-English immersion Montessori school for children 2½ to 6 years old, located in beautiful Allenhurst, New Jersey.
Spanish-English Immersion
Our primary classroom is fully Spanish-English immersion for a globally-minded education.
Authentic Montessori
We provide a peaceful, mixed-age, child-directed environment that is true to the Montessori methodology, with AMI-certified guides.
Equity-Focused
We are committed to a diverse, inclusive learning environment that works for justice as the foundation of peace.
Our school blends the boundaries between home and school, offering a comfortable space for children to express themselves and feel inspired to learn, while growing both academically and socio-emotionally.
About Our School
We are a teacher-led Montessori school that is part of the Wildflower Schools non-profit ecosystem. At Dahlia, children are inspired to learn, grow, explore the work within our prepared environment, and contribute to their community. Most of all, children feel comfortable being their authentic selves. Our school is currently enrolling students for our 2½-6 year old primary program.
Areas of Study
Our Montessori classroom offers four main areas of study that contribute to each child’s development: Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, Mathematics. True to the Montessori method, these areas open up the world to children, building a foundation of joyful and inspired learning.
Spanish-English Immersion
Children have a wonderful ability to acquire language. Dual language learning contributes to the children’s rapidly developing brains as well as exposes them to the notion that there is a broader world around them, full of culture and diverse people. Our primary classroom is fully Spanish-English immersion for a globally-minded education.
