Wyoming Valley Montessori School welcomes children 18 months through 12 years to its Toddler, Primary, and Elementary Programs. We are an independent, non-profit co-educational day school in Kingston, Pennsylvania, fully accredited by the American Montessori Society and the Middle States Association Commission on Elementary Schools.
The school was founded in 1970 by a group of parents interested in the educational philosophies of Dr. Maria Montessori. It opened its doors to twenty students and one teacher. Today the staff numbers over twenty-five and the enrollment is one hundred thirty. We are located in the Wyoming Valley of Northeast Pennsylvania, just across the Susquehanna River from Wilkes-Barre.

OUR VISION is to make manifest the innate and inexhaustible potential within every child.
OUR MISSION is to provide a respectful Montessori environment that supports children's natural desire to learn, guiding them to fulfill their potential for intellectual, social, and ethical development. The school, together with families, builds the foundation for a lifetime of learning.
While our families are diverse in their ethnicity, socio-economic levels, religious backgrounds, and professional and personal interests, we are linked by certain shared values, chief among them being the belief that a Montessori education is the best possible for our children.
