School Notes
- School Motto: Education is a personal adventure of growth and embracing challenges.
- Montessori children are extremelyadaptable. They have learned to work independently and in groups. Since they have been encouraged to make decisions from an early age, these children areproblem solverswho can make appropriate choices and manage their time well. Encouraged to exchange ideas anddiscuss their work freely with others, such students' goodcommunication skillsease the way in new settings. Research has shown that a good predictor of future success is a positive sense ofself-esteem. Montessori programs, based on self-directed, non-competitive activities, help children developstrong self-images and the confidence to face challenges and change with optimism.

Children's House was such a fun place. I had lots of friends and really liked my teachers. My favorite things about school was the big area we had to run around and play outside and all the choices we had for shelf work.
