School Overview
Overview
Waseca School is offering a Montessori education to a diverse community for over a decade.
Waseca School seeks to create a peaceful and diverse educational community serving as a link to a solution for the children of the earth.
Presently, over 150 children ages one to twelve benefit from the unique educational environment Waseca has to offer.
Children are oriented at an early age to function independently in the classroom, choosing their own work, taking responsibility for putting it away and cleaning up after themselves.
At Waseca, freedom and responsibility go hand-in-hand and children are encouraged to make choices.
Athens Montessori School strives to impart a lifelong love of learning to its students, while teaching skills essential to continued refinement of the learning process.
In our carefully prepared enviornment, we expose each child to specifically designed materials and experiences which develop physical and social abilities as well as academic skills. Applications accepted year round.
