What is Montessori?
What is Montessori?
Our Montessori school is based on the philosophy and curriculum of Dr. Maria Montessori, an Italian physician and educator. Born in 1870, she developed a method of educating children. She devoted her life to this work.
Specific educational practices found in Montessori programs include multi-age groupings, a focus on global education, careful design of the teaching/learning environment and classroom materials as well as specially trained teachers.
In mixed age group settings children learn from one another, gain autonomy, and develop positive self-esteem. Because of Montessori’s international influence we have a rich culturally diverse student body and staff that helps prepare children to appreciate and understand the diversity in our society. We create communities where everyone learns, plays/works, shares, and celebrates together.
Learning about oneself is part of learning about others. Learning is not about winning or competition. Growth occurs in a non-judgmental community where freedom for the individual is balanced with the needs of the group.
Montessori School of Baton Rouge admits students of any race, religion, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students of the organization. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship programs, and other organization-administered programs.
