The main goals of a Montessori Education include creating and maintaining a sense of order, improved coordination, prolonged concentration, and greater independence. A Montessori Directress' role is to act as a keen observer, guide, and help the children to help themselves.

The Montessori Method emphasizes learning through all five senses by using specially designed hands-on manipulatives. Children in a Montessori environment learn through discovery while developing motivation, self-discipline, confidence, and, most importantly, a love of learning. The Montessori classroom is non-competitive and is always set up for success.

The lessons are especially crafted to meet the developmental needs of the sensitive periods children experience in learning. The colorful didactic materials include a control of error and are organized progressively throughout the Children's House.

The children are the keepers of their environment and cooperate in caring for it. The main areas of concentration include Sensorial Education, Language, Math, Practical Life, Botany, Zoology, Geography, and Cultural Studies.

Dr. Maria Montessori believed that the good learning habits acquired during this important formative period eventually develop into a profound joy of learning throughout life.
