Della Terra Montessori School will be CLOSED on Wednesday, February 9th, 2011 due to
icy conditions in Cedar Park. We will resume normal operations on Thursday, February 10th.
Della Terra Montessori School celebrates the inquisitive and expressive learner
in each child. Our spacious and bright classrooms are carefully prepared to engage
and nurture the whole child. Children are surrounded by developmentally appropriate
materials that encourage discovery and foster their natural love of learning. Nestled
within huge oak and pecan trees adjacent to a large horse farm, our school feels
as if it is in the country, yet is conveniently located near Lakeline Mall in south
Cedar Park. Della Terra also offers enrichment programs that complement the Montessori
principles that guide our curriculum. These include music, foreign languages, nature
studies, fine art, sports camps, organic gardening, and food preparation. DTMS currently
accepts toilet trained children between the ages of three and six years old.

Our school was founded by an AMS certified primary teacher and is guided by the
approach originally developed by Maria Montessori over 100 years ago.

The name Della Terra roughly translates to "From the Earth" in Maria Montessori's
native language of Italian. The name serves as a constant reminder of our dedication
and love of nature and the world around us.
