Immaculata Catholic Montessori was established at St. John’s in the Fall of 2020. We are so excited to have this new early childhood (2.5-6 years), parish-based option available for our families.

Immaculata follows the authentic Montessori approach to early childhood education coupled with the Montessori-based Catechesis of the Good Shepherd component for faith formation. This unique approach to nurturing each child’s spiritual and intellectual development faithfully integrates the Montessori approach’s emphasis on self-directed, hands-on learning, and mixed-age classrooms while also surrounding each child in an environment steeped in our Catholic faith's values, traditions, and religious formation.

Stella Maris is a Catholic Montessori Teacher Academy for those wanting to become a Montessori Teacher. If you are interested in learning more about becoming a Montessori Teacher, please contact the parish office or email Teresa at teresaw@boisecathedral.org
