Early Childhood Specialists
As the west side’s premier Montessori preschool, specializing in early childhood development, Westshore Montessori understands the importance of a strong educational foundation. Lifelong learning skills, character development and independent thinking are the ABC’s of our program.
Multi-age groupings are the basis of the Montessori Method: younger children learn from older children, and older children reinforce their mastery of previously learned concepts by teaching younger children. This arrangement also imitates the real world where adults work and socialize with people of all ages and dispositions.
A Peaceful and Happy Environment
The beautiful, inviting and thoughtfully arranged environments at Westshore Montessori school embodies each element of Maria Montessori’s revolutionary approach.
Natural lighting, soft colors and uncluttered spaces set the stage for activity that is focused and calm.
Everything is where it is supposed to be, conveying a sense of harmony and order that both comforts and inspires each child to do their best, help their classmates and find the joy of learning.
What is a true Montessori Education?
Since 1966 Westshore Montessori school has helped families raise children who are confident, caring and excited to learn.
Here, the child is at the center of the learning environment and through careful observation the teacher helps him develop cognitively, socially and emotionally.
Our individualized approach with the use of concrete self correcting materials, reinforces learning through repetition and internal feelings of success.
