LEARNING SHOULD BE FUN
Our role is to nurture and preserve your child’s natural curiosity and develop an openness to the unlimited possibilities of life, using the Montessori philosophy. We encourage children to develop academic, physical, social and life skills in an environment of mutual respect.
We’re About The Young Learners…
QUALIFIED TEACHERS
Our teachers are well versed in Early Childhood Education and the Montessori Method of instruction. Our caring and compassionate staff will inspire your child to a lifelong love of learning.
PRACTICAL LEARNING
We believe children learn best through self-directed activity, hands-on learning and collaborative play. In Montessori classrooms children make creative choices in their learning, while the classroom and the teacher offer age-appropriate activities to guide the process.
SMALL CLASS SIZE
Small class size is an important component of the Montessori method. As such, class sizes in the preschool have a teacher to student ratio of 1 to 12, and elementary school of 1 to 20. Additional teacher assistants provide support throughout the day.
REGULAR EVENTS
Special events and activities build the child’s sense of community. We have seasonal activities celebrating important cultural events, as well as special community gatherings like our end of the year programs and the Spring Family Picnic.
The Montessori Way
The Montessori approach to education embraces individualized instruction for each child, a structured curriculum, and a prepared environment, using specialized Montessori materials.
Our School
PRESCHOOL THROUGH KINDERGARTEN
The Montessori approach to education embraces individualized instruction for each child, a structured curriculum, and a prepared environment, using specialized Montessori materials.
Using the Montessori method, the teacher provides a sequence of tasks sufficiently challenging and interesting to engage the child. These tasks or activities are broken down into five areas of learning: Practical Life, Sensorial, Mathematics, Language and Cultural Subjects.
ELEMENTARY (GRADES 1ST AND 2ND)
Elementary children are social beings who have an innate and natural ability to reason, which is unsurpassed at any age. The combined power of their reasoning intellect and imagination are so potent that virtually any concept or system – no matter how abstract – can be presented in such a way that they can begin integrating knowledge of the universe from all directions through all disciplines.
Our elementary children work at their own pace in a non-competitive atmosphere. We will work with your child to help him or her gain an understanding of self, develop sensitivity to others, and master the tools and skills needed to pursue knowledge on their own.
