“Our aim is not merely to make the child understand and still less to force him to memorize but so to touch his imagination as to enthuse him to his inmost core”.

Our aim is to:

  • Respect the child
  • Create a responsive environment prepared with multi-sensory, sequential, and self-correcting materials to support self-directed learning
  • Prepare teachers to assess learning styles and paces
  • Create purposeful, responsible, fulfilling lives
  • Encourage the freedom of movement to interact with peers and select activities
  • Allow uninterrupted time to finish an activity successfully thus building self-esteem
  • Follow a “personal best” approach eliminating peer-competition in favor of self-motivation
  • Give a gift of enthusiasm!

Curriculum and Program Overview:

Montessori school education highlight is multiage class grouping. Younger children learn from the older ones, who in turn gain self-confidence through their roles and mentors. Students in the middle choose either role. Each child needs both space to move ahead and time to catch up. A finely integrated curriculum creates a web of learning around multiage classroom. The curriculum builds from level to level linking subjects within levels.

We approach each challenge carefully and intelligently, encouraging trial and error with full knowledge of differing learning paces and styles and developmental stages. And, we guide our students through the challenge successfully without moving on until an activity on a concept is mastered.
