Rogers Park Montessori School

Give Your Toddler a Head Start

For nearly 60 years, RPMS has been supporting families and children, preparing them to wonder, to collaborate, and to lead.

Our Toddler Program offers more than just care: it provides a thoughtfully prepared Montessori environment where your child can build independence, confidence, and joy in learning. With tenured Montessori teachers, toddler-sized spaces, and a strong focus on social-emotional growth, your child’s first school experience will be both safe and inspiring.

RPMS is an accredited school that serves children from age 2 through 8th grade, allowing your child to grow with us in a consistent, child-centered Montessori environment that values curiosity, independence, and lifelong learning. By starting in our Toddler Program, families can build deep roots in a tight-knit community that supports their child through every stage of their development, up to high school and beyond.
