Lakefront Learning: Exploring Nature Beyond the Classroom

School Year Program: Ages 2 ½ to 6 years

Nestled in a serene lake community, our beautifully repurposed church provides an inspiring backdrop for children to immerse themselves in nature and marine life. Our classrooms feature saltwater and freshwater aquariums, offering a captivating, up-close view of exotic fish and their behaviors. Through our thoughtfully designed Montessori activities—both indoors and out—children engage in hands-on learning that fosters independence, confidence, and a joy for discovery.

Summer Camp: Ages 2 ½ to 9 years

Summer camp at CMS has a fun weekly theme where campers explore animals, marine biology, and other science topics through hands-on, creative, and enjoyable activities. Our campers spend the majority of their day outside creating great memories. Our flexible programs give you the options of half days, full days, one week or every week. See our Summer Camp page to learn more.
