Quotes

"They explore amazing materials and learn about maps, math, language, and self care.  There are no toy trucks and plastic play kitchen sets in the preschool classroom.  The education of the child is rooted in stronger materials than that."      
- Linda J. 
Franke, MS

"Authentic Montessori education follows the lead and development of the child. It fosters peacefulness, independence, self-discipline, self-respect, respect for others, respect for the environment, and instills a lifelong love of learning in children every day, across the globe. Children are encouraged to "take the drivers seat" for their own education, making choices within the classroom, while directed by a skilled Montessori guide. They learn to be at peace with themselves and those around them. Montessori education truly sets the foundation for life."
