The Montessori School of Hamilton
Preschool in Trenton, NJ 08610
The mission of the Montessori School of Hamilton is to enrich the quality of the childs educational and developmental pathways of life. To foster the love of learning and encourage individuality and self expression. We are committed to providing a high quality superior educational experience unparalleled and unsurpassed by any early childhood program provided.
The key to Montessori is that it identifies with the childs natural desire to learn. The drive with which the child holds within him is the bases for all principles and methods to Montessori. With this innate desire to explore and discover by himself the child becomes an independent learner. All this in a safe and happy environment.
Our commitment does not stop there. We believe in a continuity of learning extending it well beyond the classroom and into the home and family. After all, this is were practical life skills taught will be utilized and the sense of accomplishment felt. Educating parents in the techniques and principals used is of most importance to our continuity of learning belief. We strive to meet the needs of the children and their families.
We incorporate all facets of a childs life experiences into our learning programs. Understanding the issues and challenges with which all children are faced with at each age, gives us the knowledge needed to facilitate early learning for any child regardless of background. This ensures that we also address a childs emotional and behavioral development. A completed well rounded age appropriate program takes into consideration each and every developmental pathway of a childs life.
Regular centers may be recognized for promoting the social, cognitive and physical development of children. We not only promote these things but put emphasis on the later the emotional and behavioral development. This approach is an added must to the conventional motor and cognitive developmental programs provided by most conventional day care centers.
Prepare the environment to meet the childs needs. This should include not only the physical needs but also the psychological. The childs physical needs include clothing, shelter, food and security plus ample space to move around in. The childs psychological needs are love, social acceptance and respect for him/her as a human being. Always keeping in mind that each child is unique and will follow their own natural pathway of development. It is up to us as parents and care givers to guide them as they progress in their endeavors.
