Our goal is to provide a learning environment where the combined synergy of students, teachers and parents creates a loving, supportive community that makes our school a leader in Montessori education.

 Children's House Montessori embraces the Montessori method of education and adheres to the American Montessori Society Code of Ethics. The practical application of the Montessori method is based on the natural human tendencies to explore, move, share with a group, to be independent and make decisions, create order, develop self control and abstract ideas. In keeping with this philosophy, the school offers the following:

• The focus is on the children's learning, not the teachers' teaching.

• The classrooms are designed to meet the changing needs, interests, abilities and development of the children in the class.

• The children progress at their own pace, moving on to the next step in each area of learning as they are ready.

• The children manipulate concrete models that bring abstract concepts to life which allows children to learn with deeper understanding.

• The children are free to make choices in the classrooms as long as they are respectful to themselves, others and the environment and materials.

• The children pursue knowledge and activities because they are interested, not for external rewards or pressure from the teachers.

• Mixed age groups and a family style setting allows the focus to be less on the teachers and more on the entire community of children.

• The environment is conductive to children having a genuine fondness for one another and are free from the needless interpersonal competition for attention and prestige.
