Little Star School

Since 1982, Little Star has put young children and families first. We nurture and inspire children in our infant, toddler, and preschool programs and help them grow into lifelong learners. We are committed to providing high quality early childhood education to all Methow Valley families through our robust Financial Aid Program and by setting tuition rates 20% below true costs. This year, we will provide over $100,000 in need-based financial aid to families. Together we share a common vision that investment in early learning benefits children, families, businesses, and our entire community. In the absence of publicly funded early childhood education and childcare, we are proud to be part of the solution!  

Our mission

Little Star sparks children’s curiosity, compassion and sense of community through joyful learning and discovery.

We believe

We believe early childhood education helps us all be good citizens of the world. It is our foundation for making the world a better place.

We believe in the core Montessori values that everything is interconnected and interdependent and that all children have unlimited curiosity and potential. We strive to model and teach this.

We believe it takes a village to love, support and grow great kids – and we believe that this village needs us.

We believe our staff has the most important jobs in the world.

We believe we are worthy of support.

We believe we can grow and change to meet community needs.
