Casa dei Girasoli Montessori School is an authentic Montessori program that currently serves students ages 2.5 to 6 years of age. We support and live by the idea that education should benefit the whole child meeting them where they are on their path through education and in the end, life. We believe: --Children should be treated with respect. Modeling this behavior is first and foremost by our educators, staff, parents and community. --Education and learning are not “one size fits all.” Children learn naturally by observing their surroundings and through experiences where the child is a participant in his/her own environment, which promotes knowledge, problem solving skills and independence. --Children need to feel heard and supported. --Success builds confidence. --Teachers are not meant to lecture students, but guide them through processes and offer support when necessary. --Learning can be and IS an enchanting experience!
