Eac Montessori School
About the School
- The mission of our school is to inspire the development of children toward becoming independent, responsible, contributing individuals, in a safe, supportive, culturally diverse environment that gives them the freedom to explore, cooperate, create, and become.
- In doing so we strive for the child to become one who seeks a personal vision, who uses their talents and skills to enrich individual and community life.
- We educate children in an atmosphere which promotes respect and dignity for themselves, for others, and for the world in which we live.
- The Montessori approach to education is a holistic one, offering not only a rigorous academic curriculum but addressing as well the spiritual, emotional, physical, and social needs of the child.
- We celebrate meaningful traditions.
- We honor the sanctity of each person's spirit.
- We provide the needed security to embrace challenge.
- We nourish the deep lasting relationship between children, teachers, and parents, which deepens the learning experience.
- Within the Montessori classroom children face a microcosm of the world.
