After School Activities
Our After school program choices are selected to enrich bodies, minds and spirits, beyond traditional school and work hours.
Please note that all after school programming is offered to all local children and young adults in the regional area, and not just those enrolled/involved at Bovina Montessori.
We are always welcoming after-school instructors and guides. We are especially looking for instructors in music/choir and arts! If you are interested in providing a workshop or activity at Bovina Montessori, please contact admin@bovinamontessori.com
