Our school is accredited by CCMA (Canadian Council of Montessori Administrators) and is staffed by qualified, experienced and highly motivated teachers. Since 1968, Dearcroft has provided inspiration, opportunity and educational challenge within a nurturing, supportive environment, promoting maximum growth and development.
