Our Core Values

Working together, respecting others, and maintaining a global perspective enlighten students, teachers, families, and the larger community.

Collaboration:  

A prepared and rigorous Montessori environment challenges children cognitively, physically, emotionally, and socially and provides each student with the freedom to progress at their own developmental level and pace.

Academic Excellence:

Individuality:  

The limitless potential of every child contributes to the strength and diversity of our school community.

Community: 

Shared experiences foster lifelong commitment to social responsibility.

Respect:

Uncompromising responsibility for self, others, and the environment is critical to overall success.

Educating for Peace:  

Inner contentment, self-actualization, and community harmony engender the all-encompassing goal of peace.

“A Montessori program is based on non-competitive and cooperative activities that help a child develop a strong self-image, high levels of academic and social competence, and the confidence to face challenges.”
