Purpose and Goals
The primary purpose and goal of the Montessori Center of South Dayton, Inc. is to offer a quality Montessori education for pre-school through 3rd grade children. The objectives are to:

  • Provide the children with the tools to create, develop and maintain a positive self-image 
  • Develop a respect for other people and their differences 
  • Develop an appreciation for their own work and the work of others 
  • Develop and establish a ground-level love of learning 
  • Provide an environment and a method to encourage self-discipline 
  • Provide mixed-age groupings which support and encourage children to teach and learn from one another 
  • Provide a setting where children can develop and progress at their own learning pace 
  • Provide a classroom setting where the teachers have an unobtrusive role and can provide individual guidance

The Montessori classroom is a carefully structured environment with teaching materials encouraging each child to explore and learn for him/herself.

We are dedicated to the Montessori method of education. This method is based upon Dr. Maria Montessori's scientific observations of children's almost effortless ability to absorb knowledge from their surroundings, as well as their tireless interest in manipulating materials. These observations evolved into her development of very specific materials, exercises and methods of presentation, allowing children to pursue their natural curiosity and simply absorb a vast array of knowledge from their surrounding environment.
