 Overview
Providence Montessori School opens the world to young children. Our goal is to prepare children for a lifetime of creative thinking and learning. Children receive a broad academic education in a carefully planned and stimulating environment.
Our primary classrooms offer a three-year progressive curriculum that includes kindergarten. Our elementary classroom allows children to apply the fundamentals of a primary Montessori program, and expand upon them using methods and tools designed for the older child.
What makes Providence Montessori School so unique?
Providence Montessori school has a rich history as the first Montessori school in the Northwest. For nearly 50 years we have worked tirelessly to create a community dedicated to fostering a love of learning in every student. Our staff (Guides) are trained in the Montessori method to carefully apply the teachings of Maria Montessori. As part of the school tour, parents will observe a classroom to see this extraordinary method in practice.
What is Montessori?
The Montessori Method allows children to discover and learn from their own experiences and is based on principles including observation, order, construction and independence in the prepared environment. In a Montessori classroom, teachers observe children as they work, quietly offer guidance and prepare them for their next activity when it’s time to do so. The classroom is designed so that a child can access the Montessori materials easily, freely selecting and replacing them without the need of adult assistance.
