Our Mission

Statement

Our mission is to create a purposeful, peaceful and enriching environment, based on the philosophy and principles of Dr. Maria Montessori. Within this environment, we will nurture the children of our community to become competent, compassionate and confident people who respect and contribute to the world in which they live.

What We Offer

  • A safe, secure environment for students
  • Excellent teachers and low student/teacher ratios
  • Good collaboration between students, parents, teachers and staff
  • Development of strong personal values and cooperative social skills
  • A social atmosphere that celebrates and honors diversity
  • What A Montessori Curriculum Offers

    • Teachers are trained to carefully observe and respect children's individual needs and interests.
    • Students move at their own pace, and receive individualized assessment.
    • Environments are prepared with thoughtful, hands-on, Montessori materials.
    • Multi-age classrooms mean younger children learn readily from older children, and older children develop mastery of skills by teaching.
    • The curriculum fosters community awareness and social responsibility.
    • Children naturally develop self-discipline and a love of learning.
