About the School

  • Montessori Children's House is dedicated to a nonsectarian Montessori education for children, regardless of race, color, sex, or creed.
  • The Montessori Method is based on the premise of Dr. Maria Montessori, an Italian physician and educator who believed that each child is born with a drive to develop him/herself.
  • A child learns best from his own physical activity and uses these five senses in an enriched environment which offers the freedom to discover, explore and create with supportive encouragement.
  • Dr. Montessori's ideas have been supported and expanded by the scientific research of other developmental psychologists.
  • This program is designed to prepare a learning journey.
  • The children take a hands-on approach to exploring the world around them.
  • Materials are provided to stimulate a child's innate desire to learn.
  • Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, Mathematics, Science, Geography, Art, and Music are incorporated into the child's daily curriculum.
  • Here we build the foundation that will continue for the rest of their lives.
