Even our youngest pupil's activity is dignified by the word 'work'. Learning is a joyous natural experience for children. The environment need only offer the opportunity to learn. We provide the sensory materials in each classroom to respond to curiosity and invite discovery. Lower Elementary 6 - 9 years While our classrooms and materials are highly structured, learning is not.
Students progress at their own pace in a non-competitive atmosphere.
Our skilled Montessori-trained teachers guide their students through a balance of individual instruction, small group lessons and unstructured time. In this way your child learns self-discipline and initiative as well as competence. Because of their three year association with each child, Montessori teachers have a greater knowledge of students as individuals supplying each with new and more demanding projects as they assess each student's progress. An essential element throughout our curriculum is cultural awareness and social responsibility. In addition to a rigorous academic program, junior high students extend even more of their studies beyond the classroom and into the community.
