Welcome
Our future online home The Montessori Philosophy The Montessori method offers a unique combination of highly structured curriculum and the freedom of the child to choose his/her own activities. This freedom of choice is fundamental to Montessori, as each child progresses at their own pace and is encouraged to follow their individual developmental path. Unlike adults, preschoolers acquire information “like a sponge”, taking in all aspects of their environment. The Montessori classroom is prepared for the child's success, offering a wide range of activities and materials to explore, and providing meaningful experiences which are the precursors to the abstract understanding of ideas. Belleville Montessori School is licensed by the Ministry of Community and Social Services for children aged 2 1/2 to 6 years. It is privately owned and operated by Tadger Murray, B.A. and Marcia McQuaid, B.A., both of whom hold Montessori certification from the American Montessori Society. Our website is currently under construction but please contact us with any comments or questions. |
