The school operates Toddler, Primary, and Lower Elementary programs, allowing children to discover and grow at their own pace. The Clarksburg Children's House was founded by Ms. Jen Brazier and Ms. Kyra Schlosser after they met in a Kindermusik class and identified a need for a preschool supporting unique child needs. The school officially opened its doors in 2007 and was recognized as a Kindergarten by the state of West Virginia in 2008. In 2015, the organization became a 501(c)(3) non-profit. Expansion included opening a Toddler Room in 2017 and introducing a Lower Elementary program for grades 1-3 in 2019. Ms. Kelsey Miller took over the Primary Program in 2019, and Ms. Dawn Woodburn serves as Administrative Director and Head of School. The school moved to its current location in the Glen Elk neighborhood in the summer of 2021. The Montessori approach used at the school is child-centered, combining science and philosophy to help children reach their fullest potential. Learning happens through all five senses, with children choosing activities based on their interests and learning at their own pace. The environment is designed to be child-led, fostering independence, concentration, self-motivation, and discipline. Teachers observe and guide, respecting individuality and introducing materials one-on-one. The curriculum includes grace and courtesy, sensorial learning, gross motor development, and social integration, aiming to create kind, happy, and balanced individuals. Clarksburg Children's House is a West Virginia HOPE Scholarship approved school. It offers financial aid to qualifying families through an application process and provides The Seeds of Peace Scholarship, an annual award helping one family access the full Montessori experience. Tours are held by appointment only due to high demand, and most classrooms maintain a waitlist.
