About

Montessori Community School's (MCS) purpose is to educate children two to twelve years old through a non-sectarian, Montessori program which nurtures a lifelong enthusiasm for learning, encourages a commitment to the community, and fosters stewardship of the natural world. Philosophy MCS is committed to the child-centered Montessori method of education where children are actively engaged, self-directed learners demonstrating critical thinking, scientific, cooperative, and problem-solving skills, and where the community of adults, teachers, and parents model these skills, engaging the children and one another in meaningful ways. Objectives MCS seeks to nurture development of the spirit, academic preparedness, and social responsibility.
