Organization: COMMUNITY MONTESSORI INC
Mission: RESPECTING CHILDREN - ENGAGING FAMILIES - ENCOURAGING THOUGHTS - EMBRACING THE COMMUNITY. COMMUNITY MONTESSORI GIVES CHILDREN AN ENVIRONMENT THAT RESPECTS ALL PEOPLE AND IDEAS. WE ALSO GIVE FAMILIES A VEHICLE TO LEARN COOPERATIVELY, HAVE FUN, AND PROMOTE PEACE WITH THEIR CHILDREN. AS A SCHOOL FAMILY, WE CONTINUE TO EXPAND OUR MINDS AND USE THIS KNOWLEDGE TO MAKE AN IMPACT ON OUR COMMUNITY.
Activities: COMMUNITY MONTESSORI PROVIDES AN EDUCATION FROM BIRTH THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL. THE SCHOOL-AGED MONTESSORI PHILOSOPHY IS A MIXTURE OF DIRECT INSTRUCTION, SPONTANEOUS LESSONS, CONNECTION TO REAL LIFE LEARNING, DISCOVERY, AND AUTHENTIC ENGAGEMENT, WHICH LEADS TO PROBLEM SOLVING, INCREASED KNOWLEDGE AND LIFE-LONG LEARNING SKILLS. COMMUNITY MONTESSORI ALSO PROVIDES CARE AND EDUCATION IN AN ONSITE INFANT/TODDLER PROGRAM FOR CHILDREN FROM BIRTH TO THREE YEARS. THE PROGRAM FOLLOWS THE RESOURCE FOR INFANT EDUCARERS(RIE) PHILOSOPHY WHICH IS BASED ON RESPECT, SELF-DISCIPLINE, AND SELF-REGULATION. APPROXIMATELY 630 CHILDREN AND TEENS WERE SERVED DURING THE 2019-20 ACADEMIC SCHOOL YEAR.
