Sacramento Montessori School
The Montessori philosophy is an educational approach that ensures the development of the whole child.
It reinforces responsibility and initiates critical-thinking skills. Montessori is the child-student's preparation for life.
Our goals are to allow your child to learn at his/her own level of interest; encourage learning through the use of all the senses; develop gross and fine motor coordination; develop independence in self-care; lengthen concentration span; further develop problem-solving techniques and decision-making abilities; provide materials which focus on one concept at a time in a sequence of increasing difficulty; encourage internal order through a prepared environment; nurture a love of learning; and provide information and support for families to share the best of a child's exciting developmental years.
