Willistown Country Day School

Established in 1972 Willistown Country Day School is one of the area’s leading learning institutions for children. Based on the research of the world-renowned educator Dr. Maria Montessori the program uses each child’s unique individuality and personality as a basis for his/her educational endeavors. Willistown Country Day students utilize their firm foundation to gain success in all later educational ventures as well as in their ethical and moral development.

Parents seek the best education for their children in the Montessori Method. They know their children must unravel the miracles of mathematics learn from the past through history and experiment with the elements to seek new possibilities in the sciences. It is only through academic freedom that new discoveries are made.

The phenomenal growth of Montessori throughout the United States in both private and public schools is a testimonial to the great lifelong work of Dr. Maria Montessori "the greatest educator of modern times " according to a past president of the United Nations. There are currently more then 6 000 Montessori schools in the United States and thousands more throughout the world.

What we all want for our children is health a full development of intellect harmonious relationships ability to benefit from leisure attainment of job satisfaction and freedom to learn.
