Who We Are & What We Believe

West Side Montessori inspires children to reach their potential and, in partnership with families, promotes independence, mutual respect, and social responsibility.

We believe that each child is unique and capable. We believe in nurturing the whole child by creating a community where the heart of the child is as important as challenging the intellect. We believe that the community of the child, parent, and educator is the foundation of the school's success.

West Side Montessori’s philosophy of experiential learning at all ages inspires children to discover their potential and produces independent, self-motivated learners who make decisions with integrity; confident communicators; and compassionate leaders.
