SMART
Montessori is child-centered and fosters a love of learning based on intrinsic
motivation.  The child becomes a self-directed learner, not dependent on
the focus of the adult.  The teacher is the guide of the child, showing
the way or unlocking the door to the environment, thus enabling the child to
reach his/her full potential. 

Our mission
is to provide a complete Montessori program which considers the emotional,
intellectual, physical, and social development of the total child by addressing
the uniqueness of each in a nurturing, emotionally secure and academically
excellent environment.

 

Our core values include
respect for self, others, our environment, and our world; teaching children
independence, critical thinking, social grace, and courtesy; and striving to
instill in our children a love of learning.

 

” We should walk
together on this path of life, for all things are part of the Universe and are
connected with each other to form one whole unity…” – Maria Montessori  

We keep accurate records of what
your child is doing at school and base the academics on individual skill and
interest. We complete report cards twice yearly. We also have parent/teacher
conferences to keep you updated on your child’s progress. We work hard to
establish open communication with every parent. 
Setting goals for success at school is important and we take into
account every child’s family expectations and wishes, as well as the child’s
interests and abilities.
