"Our aim is not merely to make the child understand and still less to force him to memorize, but so to touch his imagination as to enthuse him to his inmost core." Maria Montessori

The Montessori method encourages independent action in the pursuit of learning through the use of didactic manipulatives (hands-on learning) developed by Dr. Maria Montessori (1870-1952). The child is considered to be a unique, unrepeatable, respectable and admirable individual that is unconditionally accepted as one of life's most marvelous expressions.

Our goal is to provide a unique yet traditional Montessori program for young children which is modeled after Dr. Montessori's philosophy of teaching. The Montessori Method succeeds because it draws its principles from the natural development of the child. Its inherent flexibility allows the method to adapt to the needs of the individual regardless of the level of ability or social maturity, with the result that each child becomes a lifelong learner with the capacity to fulfill an individual potential, whatever it may be.
