Good Shepherd Montessori School
About the School
- Good Shepherd Montessori School was founded in 1993 by Karleen and Carroll Wyble to serve families searching for a quality educational and spiritual program responsive to the individual and developmental needs of the child.
- We welcome students, Pre-K3 to 12th grade, regardless of race, ancestry, color, sex, religion, national or ethnic origin, or handicapping conditions to all of the rights, privileges, programs and activities of the school.
- Good Shepherd Montessori uses the Montessori Method in teaching.
- The Montessori Method aims to develop the potential of the student by means of a well-ordered environment, specially trained teachers, and uniquely designed learning materials.
- The learning materials are categorized into the various areas of Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, Math, Science, and Geography.
- The tasks are programmed so that each new step is built on what the student has already mastered, thereby building his confidence, independence and self-esteem.
- Music, poetry, and foreign languages are a part of each day.
