Our teachers respect each child as a unique individual. We view children as naturally eager for knowledge and capable of initiating learning in a supportive, thoughtfully-prepared learning environment.

We understand that not all children learn at the same pace. The Montessori curriculum is personalized to the needs of the student, which leads to children feeling confident in their abilities.

Independence and competence lead to self-confidence — these are the first steps in developing creative thinkers and confident learners. These skills are nurtured and developmentally in all programs through hands-on learning experiences and guided practice for mastery.

Character development is a central focus within the curriculum. Peace and conflict resolution are practiced daily as children learn to be part of a warm, respectful and supportive community.

Students are supported in becoming active seekers of knowledge. Education should be the lighting of a spark – igniting of a passion – from within. Children learn through hands-on activities and experiences, not through rote memorization.
It is a joy to watch our student’s blossom into the creative, confident and compassionate young adults.
