School Notes Overview: |
Since 1985, families have chosen Kirkwood Children’s House for both our nurturing approach and our academic program, which is based on the philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori. We share the fundamental belief that children learn best in a social environment that supports their unique strengths and potential. Nestled in a park-like setting in the heart of Kirkwood, our school is a unique community where children are free to be themselves. At Kirkwood Children’s House, your child will explore knowledge in a prepared environment with stimulating materials and guidance from our certified Montessori teachers. We inspire and challenge children to reach their own full potential. Our “prepared” environment guides the development of skills in the areas of practical life, sensorial, science, language, math and the arts. Kirkwood Children’s House is a community designed for children, a nurturing place to make friends and learn cooperation. In this positive, multi-cultural environment, children learn to accept individual differences and develop a sense of interdependence.
