What is Montessori?
Imagine a classroom uniquely designed to build confidence, inspire independence, and foster a love of learning. Imagine a teacher equipped to individualize instruction so each child receives what they need to learn and grow cognitively, socially, emotionally, and physically. Imagine a child who is not only proficient in math and reading, but who is prepared for a 21st century world that requires collaboration, focus, problem-solving, and critical thinking. Imagine Montessori education.
