Magnet Program Information

We are currently not accepting applications
Axson Public Montessori School will host an Open House, Thursday, February 7, 2009 from 6.30 pm. This is a unique opportunity to see the Montessori method of teaching in operation at a Duval County public school. The Montessori method uses hands-on materials in a self-paced curriculum within a multi-age classroom. Classrooms will be open so that you may see students interacting with each other and their teachers.
 
Grades PK3-PK4
To be eligible for the PK3 program your child should be 3 by September 1. Applications are to be turned in to the school and can only be made after a tour of school has been completed.

Call Kathy Bear at 992-3600 for more information.
