At Coral Springs Montessori, we seek to educate the whole child by cultivating the child's natural desire to learn.
Dr. Montessori, the founder of the Montessori teaching approach, believed that a child must not only be given specific information, but must be taught how to develop his natural capacities and desire for learning to help him become a life-long learner and reach his maximum potential.
Our mission is to provide a safe, loving, and enriched academic enviornment for children.
We stress independent learning. The freedom to develop without boundaries is cited by experts as one of the biggest advantages in Montessori education.
Multi-age grouping allows young children to learn from older ones, and older children to teach and mentor the younger ones as they continue to progress with the advanced lessons.
We also stress social and moral development, conflict resolution, learning by doing, fostering curiosity and developing self-esteem.
We strive to develop self-discipline and self-control, as opposed to good behavior imposed by rewards and punishments.
