Vision

The Montessori Farm School vision is to educate compassionate and productive world citizens with an appreciation of the interdependency of all living things.

Montessori Farm School Mission

The Montessori Farm School works to provide a learning environment where children are given the opportunity to become well-rounded individuals as they develop respect for others, compassion, self-discipline, and learn the importance of world citizenship. The Montessori philosophy is used in dynamic, carefully prepared environments within the classroom and on the farm to deepen their knowledge of the interdependency of the earth and all that live on it.

Each child is given individual, developmentally appropriate instruction using traditional Montessori materials and methods. Through a series of lessons within each area of the classroom, (including practical life, sensorial, language, math, science, geography and art), children move from mastering concrete concepts to ones of abstract thinking.

Each child is given the foundation and tools to be academically competitive in the future, both in the material they learn and the passion for discovery that is nourished. The children's daily work with animals and in the gardens teaches developmental concepts such as nurturing, respect and patience. All activities indoors and out have a distinct purpose and goal in the education and growth of our children.

Our mission extends to the families of each child enrolled in the farm school. We hope to inspire and support each family's quest to live as well-rounded individuals, emphasizing respect, compassion and the true meaning of world citizenship as we work together to raise and educate our children.
