Our Story
Founded in 1976 by a dedicated group of Wellfleet parents, the Wellfleet Preschool Playgroup evolved into a cherished institution for early childhood education. After its closure in 2008 due to state cutbacks, local mothers recognized the urgent need for quality preschool education and established the Wellfleet Montessori Preschool. This nurturing environment celebrates each child's natural curiosity and potential, allowing children of diverse ages to explore their unique gifts and interests. With Montessori-trained teachers guiding them at their own pace, children learn the values of respect, kindness, and responsibility, preparing them to become confident members of their local and global communities.
