The Cottage Montessori School
Instills self-reliance and builds self-esteem.
The Cottage Montessori is a preschool and kindergarten school in Kitsap County. We are located off Silverdale Way in Silverdale, WA. The school sits on an acre of private property owned by the head teacher, Mrs. Kay Gapp. The school is across from the beautiful walking trails of the Clear Creek Reserve, which is a wealth of nature for the students to enjoy and explore.
Mission Statement
The Cottage Montessori follows the Montessori Philosophy, which fosters curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking in its students. The classroom is prepared daily to meet all the needs of a child’s learning style, interest, and readiness to achieve personal academic excellence and become lifelong learners who respect themselves, others, and their environment.

Summer School
The Cottage Montessori School offers a fun Summer School program open to children aged 3 to 7 years old. You do not need to be enrolled at the Cottage to attend. You can sign up for a week or two, depending on your needs. This is a great way for your child to experience nature and utilize all the available Montessori materials in the classroom to their delight and educational advancement.
Classrooms are prepared to encourage independence, freedom, and a sense of order.
Our program requires children to make use of what the class environment offers to develop themselves.
