Nestled along the Hudson River, Battery Park Montessori offers children ages 1 through 5 a nurturing first-school experience where purposeful Montessori learning unfolds in English, Mandarin, and Spanish throughout the day.

Each classroom includes Montessori-trained teachers who are native speakers of English, Mandarin, and Spanish. Each teacher uses one designated language consistently, allowing children to connect all three languages with familiar people, objects, actions, and experiences. Children encounter language through conversation, songs, stories, routines, and Montessori lessons. As they grow, this experience extends into mathematics, geography, Cultural Studies, and other areas of the curriculum.

Children learn by doing. A one-year-old may carry a tray or practice pouring. A two-year-old may spoon, wash, sort, or prepare food. An older child may build quantities, connect sounds with letters, or study a map. Teachers present each material carefully and give children time to choose, repeat, concentrate, and move toward mastery.

Give your child a joyful, nurturing first school experience in Battery Park City. Children build independence through hands-on learning and trilingual immersion in Mandarin, Spanish, and English. Complete your Priority Admissions checklist by December 2, 2026.
