Exceptional early childhood education in a home-like environment…

LT Sign.jpeg2

The Learning Tree is a progressive, established Montessori school that offers year-round care to children 2 ½ to 6 years of age.  We are a truly child-centered program, with an amazing staff of seasoned educators and a deep commitment to the practice of outstanding early childhood education. We’ve been supporting families since 1979, and are located in a charming house in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle.

At The Learning Tree we focus on the emotional and social development of children. We also provide an academically rich and inviting space for them to freely explore, and we have a large play yard where we have two outdoor classrooms.  We believe that the ability to be in healthy relationship with others is critical when it comes to success in the world and personal satisfaction in life.  At The Learning Tree children are guided toward developing their individuality while learning how to be in community with others with compassion.

Please call us to learn more about our dynamic and lively program or visit our admissions page for information about our application process.

Help Us Secure Our Forever Home!

The Learning Tree is currently fundraising to buy our building and ensure this special property is our Forever Home!

The school has rented our current location the heart of Capitol Hill for 42 years, providing a place of stability and growth for nearly one thousand families, and nurturing friendships that last a lifetime.

Our board has finally negotiated a purchase of this building and we close the sale in August, 2024!

This special piece of property, with a huge playground, room for our outdoor classroom (the California room!), and the home-like atmosphere LT kids and families love, will be our forever with your help. We now need our entire community’s support to secure our beloved school so that we can continue to be a full-day Montessori school educating a diverse community of preschool students and their families to be curious, compassionate, caring citizens!
