Montessori Philosophy:

The education program is firmly rooted in the teachings of Dr. Maria Montessori. She discovered that children have an innate love of learning and are eager to explore their environment. She observed that when given a rich, purposeful environment, children are by nature self-motivated, independent, self-disciplined, capable of intense concentration, and capable of cooperating with others. Montessori's approach is intended to build upon these qualities so that children can develop into confident and responsible adults.
