Montessori is a comprehensive educational approach from birth to adulthood. Beginning her work over a century ago, Dr. Maria Montessori developed this educational approach based on her understanding of children's natural learning tendencies as they unfold in "prepared environments" for multi-age groups.

The main purpose of The Montessori School is to provide a carefully planned, stimulating environment based on developmental needs that will help the child establish an excellent foundation for creative learning.

The specific goals for the children who attend a Montessori school include:

• Developing a positive attitude toward school
• Individualized learning activities
• Engaging in a learning task that particularly appeals to him or her geared to his or her needs and level of readiness
• Working at his or her own rate, repeating the task as often as he or she likes, thus experiencing a series of successful achievement
• Developing self confidence
