Montessori International Academy

A prepared environment with age appropiate manipulative learning equipment is available which allows the child to progress at his own pace. Positive reinforcement, learning by doing, order and movement are principles that are advocated. Children learn self-confidence and responsiblity through purposeful activity, observation and discovery. There are now thousands of Montessori private and public schools across the nation. The Montessori Method has been used successfully with children from birth through high school. Students from all socio-economic levels, various cultural backgrounds and diversified academic abilities have successfully attended Montessori programs.

In the classroom, the teacher instructs the child in the use of the Montessori learning materials. Children move freely in the environment choosing puposeful work. The equipment is returned to its proper place when the task is completed. The children are guided by the teachers using ground rules which gives freedom within limits. Children participate in group activites as well as individual work, building social skills along with academic excellence. Our schools’ goal is to give the child the adventure of discovery and the joy of accomplishment.
