Stepping Stone Montessori School, Cumming & Sugar Hill

We are proud to be a part of the Duluth / Lawrenceville / Suwanee / Sugar Hill community! We are excited to offer high-quality Montessori education to the families in the area. Our teachers work alongside the children in discovering and exploring theworld in a respectful, collaborative manner. In Montessori, we know the value of your work. Supporting the natural, healthy development of a child is highly rewarding work, and we each play a role in serving local families when it comes to this. The classrooms are prepared with concrete, hands-on materials designed to appeal to the children's interest during each stage of development. In this environment, children learn through curiosity, exploration, and experience. Montessori is founded on the belief that children are capable of self-development and that they will reach their true potential when they are helped to find their own path in an environment that is specifically tailored to their needs at each stage of their development. The Real Difference of Montessori: The formation of children's fundamental capacities is hugely important during the first years of life - not just academic learning but the ability to concentrate, persevere and think for themselves as well as the ability to interact well with others. Children who have been given the right kind of support during these formative years grow into adults who are self-motivated and love learning, can think flexibly and creatively and who are not only conscious of the needs of others but actively foster harmony as they go through life. SSMS classrooms are multi-age: Infant classes for the ages of 6 weeks to 15 months; Toddler classes for the ages of 16 months to 3 years; and Primary classes for the ages of 3 years to 6 years.… Read more
