Montessori School of Redding
The Montessori School of Redding is an educational institution that has been serving the community since 1990. The school's philosophy is rooted in the Montessori method, which emphasizes self-directed learning, hands-on activity, and collaborative play, as inspired by the words of Maria Montessori: "Respect all the reasonable forms of activity in which the child engages and try to understand them." The school's approach is characterized by individualized instruction, mixed-age classrooms, and a specially designed learning environment that promotes exploration and discovery. The program is designed to provide a comprehensive education, focusing on the overall development of preschool and pre-k children, and includes daily integration of the arts, music, and outdoor activities, with an emphasis on respect for self, the environment, and peace education.
