An authentic Montessori environment facilitates development of the whole child--physical, social, academic, & emotional.
To assist in the child's self-construction of becoming a well-rounded, excellently socialized human being with a rational, inquisitive, well-organized mind is the end goal of a Montessori education.
Each of our classrooms at VMS (3 Primary & 1 Toddler) are led by an
AMI trained guide who is complimented by at least one
assistant. Montessori classrooms offer a mixed-age,
multi-faceted peer group of up to 20 children (14 in the toddler
room), creating true communities. The specially-prepared
environment includes areas of practical life, sensorial, language,
math, geography and biology, expression and music. We are
very committed, as a staff,to the connectedness of each child
to the natural world. Therefore, outdoor time and experience
are a regular part of the classroom as well.
All three of my children have been fortunate to attend this wonderful school! It is such a nurturing environment. My children truly thrived and were able to express themselves individually. The staff is very knowledgeable and caring. I wouldn't have wanted my children anywhere else!
