The Love of Learning

Children learn by discovery with a sense of joy and wonder.  By nurturing the intrinsic desire in every child to explore his or her world, the Montessori Method establishes early on a strong foundation for a lifelong love of learning.

At Mountain Shadows, we have created a beautifully rich environment which fosters the natural ability for each child to learn and grow.  By respecting the child and honoring his or her unique qualities, we use the proven child-centered education principles pioneered by Dr. Maria Montessori a century ago.  The results are academic excellence, a passion for learning, and the excited and eager faces of children as they go to school each day.

Mission

Our mission is to provide an AMI Montessori environment in which children joyfully reach their full potential through the development of independence, academic excellence, respect for their environment, self and others, and moral responsibility to society.

The creative spirit of the child is our first priority.  Education should strive to release human potentialities and to assist the child with living both now and in the adult world.  The child has a constructive energy which seeks its own perfection.  We provide an environment that nourishes this energy.  The child thereby acquires the knowledge, skills and clarity of vision to influence the direction of his or her life in this society.
