The Montessori School
Thank you for your interest in The Montessori School at Wabash Presbyterian Church!
“Our care of the child should be governed, not by the desire to make him learn things, but by the endeavor always to keep burning within him that light which is called intelligence.” – Dr. Maria Montessori
OUR MISSION: The Montessori School at WPC is a student-centered learning center for children ages 18 months to 9 years. Our educators work to provide a loving and nurturing atmosphere where children are encouraged to grow and learn through meaningful work.
WHAT IS MONTESSORI?
Montessori education is movement-oriented, observation-based teaching, founded on the research and writings of Dr. Maria Montessori, who opened the first school in Italy in 1907. Instead of rows of desks, raised hands, and worksheets; in a Montessori classroom, you will find students working at small tables or rugs on the floor, moving about the room to get the materials they need for their lessons. Teachers regularly observe the children to see what interests and academic or developmental needs they have, and present lessons based on these observations.
