Your preschooler will benefit from the proven academic advantages of Montessori in a loving and nurturing environment.
MFS strives to create a dynamic learning environment where each student is given the necessary time, tools and guidance to acquire knowledge at a pace most appropriate individually. The classrooms reflect the ever changing cultural, seasonal and community interest studies. Throughout the school year, more challenging work is presented and added to the curriculum and is driven by the readiness of each student individually - not collectively. Those who are ready will be continually challenged at an accelerated pace and those who require additional time will be given it.
Montessori classrooms are multi-age, which allows the children to work and socialize within groups of three year age spans. Many opportunities exist for peer teaching, mentoring and role modeling in this setting. This enables the youngest students to be exposed to the older student's lessons while simultaneously working at their own comfortable and developmentally appropriate levels. Older students are given the opportunity to further master the lessons by sharing and teaching the younger students.
