Welcome to Good Earth Montessori School. We offer an educational program for children 2 to 6 years of age. All members of our staff are dedicated to the fostering of education and life which respects each child's self-concept and developmental needs. The Montessori environment is designed to allow a child his/her independence, self-discovery, and freedom to learn in his/her academic and physical development. The goal of both Montessori and traditional pre-schools is the same: to provide learning experiences for the child. The biggest differences lie in the kind of learning experiences each school provides and the methods they use to accomplish this goal. Montessori educators believe these differences are important because they help shape how a child learns, his work habits, and his future attitudes toward himself and the world around him.
