Why Montessori?
Montessori is an individualized approach to education that helps each child reach their full potential. It is a student-centered approach that encourages creativity and curiosity and leads children to ask questions, explore, investigate and think for themselves. Montessori students develop creativity and confidence, critical thinking and problem solving skills, and a positive, collaborative attitude - all key attributes needed for lifelong satisfaction and success.
