Our Philosophy
The Montessori method nurtures a child’s love of learning while teaching the importance of respect, an ability to work with others and a strong sense of independence. Montessori teachers are trained to model these positive values as well as teach them.
At Beach Park School, our educators recognize that different children learn in different ways and guide them in their studies accordingly. They allow children to select their own learning activities.
Montessori students work in mixed-aged classrooms and as they grow in their skills, the teacher’s role is to guide them in their learning. They can go at their own pace and grow in their own ways, learning through direct experience, investigation and discovery.
Because Montessori programs are based on self-directed and noncompetitive activities, children develop strong self-esteem and the lifelong confidence to face both challenge and change with optimism.
