Choosing a Montessori school near you in Freeville, NY for your child can be an important decision, as you want to be sure that the school environment is conducive to their needs.

Another way to determine if a Montessori school is right for you is by observing activities in the classroom, such as children working independently on tasks while maintaining order and cooperation with others.

Montessori schools provide tremendous benefits to children's development! Montessori education focuses on fostering independence, self-direction and problem-solving skills among students. Montessori classrooms are designed with developmentally appropriate activities that allow children to take ownership of their learning and investigate topics that interest them while also developing their physical and motor skill sets.
