"Education should no longer be mostly imparting of knowledge,

but must take a new path, seeking the release of human potentialities."

-Maria Montessori

 

 

Our school exists as an educational alternative. Our services extend beyond the classroom. Educational opportunities for families enable parents to reinforce and enrich the child’s learning. Staff members are offered the means and resources for professional growth and are provided an environment which encourages initiative, creativity, and collaborative decision-making.

 

We believe that respect, cooperation, and mutual support among students, parents, staff, and community members are critically important to a child’s success in school and must be actively fostered by all participants.

 

We, at St. Joseph Montessori School, believe that as a result of the program provided in our school, each child will become confident, competent person. They will become  young adults who  possess self-knowledge, independence, concentration, inner-discipline and a spirit of joy. They will exhibit care and respect for him or herself, for others, and for the world around. They will exercise initiative and persistence in completing learning tasks and  exhibit sensitivity, curiosity, creativity, and a spirit of discovery in his or her approach to life and learning.
