Children's Harbor Montessori School

Walk Richmond Terrace east of Forest Avenue and you’ll find a compact brick building tucked between two-lanes and a steep drop—Children’s Harbor Montessori School trains its windows toward the Verrazzano light when the weather turns. Inside, the category remains constant: multi-age classrooms that turn algebra puzzles into manipulative exercises and reading circles into silent coaxing. The school’s address is 1000 Richmond Ter, Staten Island, NY 10301; bring a call to (718) 442-6112 to confirm any open-house windows or entrance protocols. When the last parent pickup has echoed down the block, the space reverts to its weekday function—cosmic charts circling a ceiling fan, jars of polished stones on low shelves, number rods stacked to the elbow height of six-year-olds.
