Paramount Montessori School

For nearly 20 years, Champion Education has taught students in Morrisville, and today it brings Champion Academy, Champion Art School, after-school programs and summer camps together on Pheasant Wood Court. Champion Academy is a Cognia-accredited private school that offers individual high school credit courses, so students in grades 9 to 12 can add a class while staying at their public, private, homeschool or online school. Courses cover English, math, science, social studies, world languages, computer science, art and design, with AP exam preparation, and meet in person, live online or in a hybrid format. Our art school teaches drawing and painting from kindergarten up, and qualified artists can begin high school art credit as early as grade 7, moving into digital design, 3D animation and portfolio courses. For Pre-K through middle school, the after-school program runs until 6:00 p.m. on weekdays, with transportation from selected schools and a six-level Chinese pathway leading toward AP Chinese. Enrichment classes include Singapore math, reading and writing, Python, game design and an FLL robotics competition team for grades 4 to 8.

Creative Schools at Davis Park has cared for Morrisville children since 1999, and our parent company is a family-run business founded in 1985 by a former teacher and a commercial banker. Full-time care is open to infants at 6 weeks up through 5-year-olds, with limited part-time spots for ages 1 to 5, and our day runs from 7:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday. The center holds a Five Star North Carolina license. Our teachers plan lessons with the Creative Curriculum, which follows 38 objectives aligned with the NC Early Learning Standards and covers STEM, language and literacy, social skills, physical development and the arts. Infants learn baby sign language, preschoolers combine child-chosen activities with small-group instruction, and Kindergarten Prep classes work on math, literacy, writing and science in small groups. Classrooms also use Conscious Discipline to teach problem solving and self-regulation. Parents can check in through live classroom camera feeds and receive daily sheets, photos and milestone updates in the Tadpoles app. Children who graduate from our program receive a check toward a 529 college savings plan.

Set along Keybridge Drive near NC-54, The Crème School of Morrisville takes children as young as 6 weeks and as old as 12 and is open from 6:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Children move from infant and toddler daycare into preschool for 3 and 4 year olds, Pre-K for 4 and 5 year olds, and a private kindergarten for 5 year olds. Each day, children rotate through 30-minute Signature Enrichment classes in STEM, Spanish, music and art, layered on a Core Curriculum of movement, math and literacy that meets state standards. Our building has a basketball court, soccer field and indoor gym, plus STEM and computer labs. Soccer Stars and Amazing Athletes are available as extra-cost programs. Tuition depends on age, classroom and schedule, with part-time and full-time options. It covers breakfast, lunch and snacks, diapers and wipes, enrichment classes, and before- and after-school transportation for elementary students. School-age children can stay for care before and after school, during school breaks, and at summer camp with field trips. Entry uses biometric fingerprint scanners, and classrooms and playgrounds have live cameras.
