Welcome to
Montessori Program
Language Immersion Montessori
Our continued vision is to give our children the most advanced educational experience possible, preparing them for their future. The Montessori method of education is focused on teaching students to think critically, and work collaboratively, the tenets of a 21st Century citizen.
Mandarin, Spanish and English are the three most spoken languages in the world and we teach these languages because we want to give our children the tools to effectively communicate with the world.
The world is changing, and if we want to give our children an advantage for their future we need to think ahead. One skill that will give them leverage in the future job market is languages. If they can read, write and speak the three most spoken languages in the world then they will have a competency that no other children possess.

What is Montessori?
Montessori is a comprehensive educational approach from birth to adulthood which is focused on hands-on, experiential learning. This philosophy encourages exposure to diverse cultures and an acquisition of respect for that diversity.
The Montessori learning environment contains specially designed, manipulative “materials for development” that invite children to engage in learning activities of their own individual choice. Under the guidance of a certified teacher, children in a Montessori classroom learn by making discoveries with the materials, cultivating concentration, motivation, self-discipline, and love of learning.
Maria Montessori
born in Chiaravalle, Italy, on August 31 1870. In spite of contemporary cultural expectations for women, she pursued higher education and earned a medical degree from the University of Rome in 1896 (although she was not, as is often claimed, the first Italian woman to do so). Between 1896 and 1906, Montessori worked with mentally disabled children and continued her research in psychology and education.
1. The aim of Montessori education is to foster competent, responsible, adaptive citizens who are lifelong learners and problem solvers.
2. Learning occurs in an inquiring, cooperative, nurturing atmosphere. Students increase their own knowledge through self- and teacher-initiated experiences.
3. Learning takes place through the senses. Students learn by manipulating materials and interacting with others.
4. The individual is considered as a whole. The physical, emotional, social, aesthetic, spiritual, and cognitive needs and interests are inseparable and equally important.
5. Respect and caring attitudes for oneself, others, the environment, and all life, is necessary.
