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".
