Community Montessori can be for every child, but may not be for
every family. We offer a comprehensive educational approach that is
centered around each individual learner and partnering in his/her
continued growth in connecting knowledge for lifelong
learning.
Under guidance, children and teens learn by making discoveries
and asking questions, all the while cultivating concentration,
motivation, selfdiscipline, and a love of learning. Our beliefs
about learning are progressive and based on current research about
how we learn and conceptualize new information. Families should not
choose Community Montessori as an educational option if you are
looking for a "quick fix" or are interested in outsourcing
education. Families that commit to being involved in learning,
modeling that learning happens all the time and everywhere, and
want to be a partner in the growth of their child will find the
most success at Community Montessori.
Early Education children (including kindergarten) ages three
through six come together in this homelike environment to learn by
interacting with one another and educational materials. They are
guided in this process by caring adults with extensive training in
early childhood development. Content is presented on an individual
basis upon readiness with a focus on independence, concentration,
coordination, and a sense of order.
Elementary Program (1st - 6th grade) Compassionate educators
support children ages six through twelve in creating dynamic
learning environments in which they feel empowered to engage in
endless content areas based on their interests. The day includes a
combination of childled and adult directed activities to encourage
ownership and a sense of community.
Teen`s Program (7th - 12th grade) Learning should be meaningful
and purposeful. Respectful adults (Advisors) support teens twelve
through eighteen years old, in becoming reflective learners who are
willing to take risks and ask questions that encourage thought and
the attainment of knowledge. This program allows teens to set
specific academic, moral/emotional/social, and career goals to
encourage life long learning skills. Because of the unique nature
of our Teen`s Program, teens cannot apply after 10th grade
year.
