Curriculum

St. Catherine's Montessori is dedicated to fostering passion for learning, in an enriched, caring and safe environment, that stimulates the growth of the total child.  Our goal is to help students develop skills that will enable them to become self-confident, caring citizens of the world, where intellectual, moral, physical and spiritual growth can take place on an individual basis.
 
Our dedicated faculty and staff are trained to empower children to reach their fullest potential through a sound educational experience based on the teaching of Dr. Maria Montessori.  Dr. Montessori believed that each individual human being has an innate unique talent which, when fulfilled, is the individual's essential contribution to life and the entire community.  To discover his or her own unique talent, each child needs to be exposed to experiences pertaining to all facets of life.  To this end, Maria Montessori designed manipulative materials for all subject areas, activities which children experience sesorially and interactively in a multi-age and multi-ethnic classroom setting.  Freedom within limits leads children to responsible choices, self-disciple, and self esteem.
