Curriculum

Montessori education

Developed by Dr. Maria Montessori, the Montessori approach is child-centered and based on scientific observations of children from birth to adulthood. With over 100 years of success in diverse cultures throughout the world, the child is viewed as an individual who is naturally eager for knowledge and capable of initiating learning in a supportive, thoughtfully prepared learning environment. The Montessori approach values the human spirit and the development of the whole child-physical, social, emotional and cognitive.
