VCMS Early Childhood

Early Childhood Program

The 18-month Early Childhood Program begins with online content during the winter and early spring. This is followed by a 3 1/2 week intensive summer session and is followed by online coursework during the practicum year. Two additional in-residence seminar sessions are held over two weekends during the practicum year.

Student teaching occurs over one school year as the adult learner develops their skills in the Montessori environment. Academic assignments reinforce their learning during the practicum year.
