150 Vanadium Road Ste 3, Bridgeville, PA, 15017-0152 -

School Notes Overview:

Montessori Children’s Schoolhouse was founded for the purpose of providing educational curriculum and facilities based upon the methods and educational philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori. The Montessori philosophy recognizes that a child’s early years are the most formative and that a child’s ability to acquire knowledge is enhanced through the manipulation of concrete material. The carefully prepared environment is structured to meet the individual needs of each child, thus allowing children to progress at their own pace. The environment is prepared to address all aspects of the child’s development.
