Our Core Values

Our core values are the inherent building blocks of our campus communities and reflect our lasting commitment to Montessori education and principles, as well as to our students, families, and community. These key elements help define our identity and purpose:

Community

Each person – student, teacher, parent, director, and administrator – who joins our institution belongs to a diverse group of students and adults that respects the children and each member of our community. Together we all contribute to the success of our students and community.

Compassion

We respect our children and one another as members of a community. We value the uniqueness of each member of our community and treat each other with kindness and dignity.

Diversity

We seek diversity to create a learning environment that includes and values differing perspectives and cultural depth.

Excellence

We strive to attain and maintain high standards of performance in everything we do to develop the maximum potential of every child and educator. Our students are empowered to be self-motivated, self-disciplined, and independent learners. Our educators are talented individuals who give their best and work together to create and environment where others can do their best. As an institution we continually seek ways to improve and grow.
