Morningside Montessori School
Morningside Montessori School is guided by the principles of Maria Montessori, focusing on the development of the whole child. The school's educational approach is centered around the Montessori method, which emphasizes child-centered learning, mixed-age classrooms, hands-on learning materials, individualized instruction, and uninterrupted work periods. Trained Montessori teachers guide and support students, allowing them to learn at their own pace and develop essential life skills, including self-confidence, independence, and academic achievement. Key features of the school's program include multi-sensory materials, language arts, mathematics, arts, music, physical exercise, and various activities such as Spanish, art, yoga, and gardening. The Montessori environment helps children develop a personal sense of order, concentration, independence, respect for oneself and others, and a love of learning, fostering a sense of community and curiosity.
