Why Montessori? Simply put, a Montessori education provides the best
educational start for your children. Dr. Maria Montessori was a highly educated
physician who spent over 40 years observing and educating children. 101 years later,
her philosophy and methodology are being validated by current brain research and
educational studies. For a woman living in the early 1900's, Dr. Maria Montessori was
a pioneer. She was a the first true advocate of the child, and her vision for education
has changed the lives of children all over the world.
In our ever changing world, education has become more of a concern to parents than
ever before. Children are individuals that have different learning styles and abilities.
Explore Montessori, her life, her philosophy, her methods and how they can change
your child's life. Then imagine a school that has an innovative and collaborative
learning environment, challenging academics, and a highly trained teaching staff.
Imagine a school that gives your child the freedom to learn as an individual, nurtures
each student while encouraging independence, self motivation, self assurance, and
respect for others and the environment. Imagine a school where students learn not
to be afraid of making mistakes, they learn that they are a natural step in their learning
process. Imagine a school where your child will receive a strong education as
well as exceptional character development. That school is Montessori Children's
Community and that is the answer to "why Montessori".
