At Montgomery Montessori School, we believe that every child has the right to go to a school that is a perfect match for them. As members of American Montessori Association (AMS) we believe and uphold the Montessori philosophy with the fundamental principle that a child learns best within a social environment, which supports each individual's unique development.It is based on such premises as:
- Children are to be respected as different from adults and as individuals, who are different from one another.
- Children create themselves through purposeful activity.
- The most important years for learning are from birth to age six.
- Children possess greater sensitivity and mental power for absorbing and learning from their environment than do adults
Meet Us"I have come to believe that a great teacher is a great artist and that there are as few as there are any other great artists. Teaching might even be the greatest of the arts since the medium is the human mind and spirit."
