Hershey Montessori School (Huntsburg Campus – Ages 12 to 18 Years)


11530 Madison Road
Huntsburg Township, OH 44046

At Hershey, classrooms are called “communities” where students work in multi-age groups so they can learn from and interact with others of diverse ages and interests. These programs include the Parent-Infant Program (2 months to walking), the Young Child Community (walking to 36 months), Children’s House (3 to 6 ½ years), Elementary (6 to 12 years) and Adolescent Community (12 to 18 years).

Students are given blocks of uninterrupted time to figure out a problem, or to ask questions of their teachers, or share their passion for a subject with another student. They work and learn at their own pace and make choices regarding which activities they want to take part in. When children are given a choice, they are already naturally engaged and interested, so they are never bored. 



For more information, call Lakisha Wingard, director of admissions, at (440) 357-0918 or visit www.Hershey-Montessori.org.
