Peace Montessori School adheres to the spirit and practice of Maria Montessori, an Italian physician and educator.
The Montessori teaching system is a proven method for success in early childhood education.
The Peace Montessori School elementary program is based on developmental needs common to 6 to 9 year old children (K-3) and is also highly individualized.
Our goal is to help the child become an independent, inquiring, and confident person.
The Montessori teacher guides and inspires children to experience the rich environment of the classroom, which had been specially designed and prepared, to encourage self-directed learning.
