School Philosophy and Mission
"“Help me to do it by myself” a Montessori axiom. The child must educate himself. The
adult prepares the environment and assists in the guidance of the child, but it is the child
that works for the development and completion of skills and the creation of the man that
he is to become.
The Montessori concept of education allows the children to experience the joy of learning
at an early age while preserving the spontaneity, initiative, and curiosity inherent in every
child. This concept promotes the development of independence, concentration and selfdiscipline,
and fosters love and respect for others and the environment. The Montessori
experience provides the child with “preparation for life”."

Being Savvy Today
Kids Around the World
It's well known that if you want to get your preschoolers interested in something, the best way is to show them that other kids are involved. This rule holds for almost everything, even geography! Think about it this way: if you were to take your kids on a
Montessori? Waldorf? Play-based?
What school type is right for your child? Is one model better than another? What does the research say?
View an example from the Savvy Source guide to learn more.
Today's “Preschool’s Out” Activity
Trace around your child's foot, with shoe on, on a piece of white construction paper or card stock. Have child cut out the shoe print and add a spooky face. Glue it to a popsicle stick and you have a ghost stick puppet!
