School Notes
- Students at Hershey Montessori follow a carefully crafted curriculum aimed at intellectual, social and practical development in a manner and environment that is appropriate for the child at each stage of development. Children are guided through all the same basic concepts as in a traditional school environment through a self-taught, exploratory approach that allows them the freedom to choose their work and progress at their own developmental pace. Following the AMI Montessori curriculum, guides create a framework for learning that provides freedom within boundaries, and teaches the student life-long lessons of initiative and self discipline.In addition to standard curriculum, Montessori students have the benefit of learning from their environment, studying language and engaging in the arts at a deep level. Beyond intellectual development, Montessori students are taught the importance of empathy and respect, as well as practical life skills that are achieved through purposeful work. From infancy, Montessori students are taught how to practically take care of themselves and the world around them through every day activities and common courtesies like greeting or thanking people.
