School Notes Overview:

Mercy Montessori Center is Catholic School modelled on two fundamental principles: the educational philosophy of the Sisters of Mercy, region of Cincinnati, and that of the Montessori Method of Education. As a Mercy Institution, the school strives to instill in each student a love of God and a respect for the individual talents given to all. The school, through its student body, reflects a microcosm of society. It accepts and respects each child as an individual, unique in his/her own religious beliefs, race and cultural heritage as well as intellectual and physical capabilities.

The religious and moral development of the child is promoted as well as his/her intellectual growth. Mutual respect for each other's rights - the child's and the adult's - is strongly emphasized. Peaceful means or problem solving are employed. ...
