Elementary Workshop Montessori School (Closed 2010)

The Elementary Workshop Montessori School has always been a place where children love to learn.
The purpose of the Elementary Workshop Montessori School is to provide the highest quality education in a diverse, cohesive academic environment.
In the Montessori tradition we foster each child's joy in learning and enable each child's fullest development.
Young children have an intense desire to learn and they have unusual ability to absorb and learn from their environment.
The school must foster what is natural, unique, and authentic in children.
Since the best preparation for being a happy and useful adult is to live fully as a child, the school must be a community where children can exist first and foremost as children and not as future adults.
