The families and staff of St. Peter the Apostle Montessori believe that education is a developmental process and recognize that we have to prepare for the individuality of each student and provide a prepared learning environment, which promotes independence and responsibility.
We also believe that we, as educators, are committed to providing students the freedom and opportunity to discover, develop and evaluate their academic abilities, skills, talents, and social relationships.
