The Lakewood Montessori School is dedicated to the total development of the constantly growing child.
Our environments provide varying degrees of challenge from which children may, with guidance, choose work according to their level of development.
We value that the direction of growth is positively influenced by perpetuating a warm, caring, and nurturing community.
Lakewood Montessori School is committed to individualized education, allowing children freedom to develop at their own pace.
We strive to satisfy a child's need to know, to achieve, to belong, to feel safe and secure, and to develop self-esteem.
The Montessori school is designed to accommodate various stages of development in children, which occur in roughly 3-year cycles.
From birth to 3 years of age the child is absorbing directly from the environment, analogous to a sponge.
It is during this phase that many language and motor skills are acquired without formal instruction.
