Berks County Montessori Country Day School

THE MONTESSORI COUNTRY DAY SCHOOL COMMUNITY, CONSISTING OF TEACHERS, STAFF AND PARENTS, MAKES IT THEIR GOAL TO PROVIDE QUALITY, CHILD-CENTERED, INDIVIDUALIZED EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN AGES 12 MONTHS THROUGH 13 YEARS. WE ALL WORK TOGETHER TO DEVELOP RESPONSIBLE, CRITICAL-THINKING, CONFIDENT, POWERFUL, AND CARING MEMBERS OF SOCIETY. THROUGH THE MANIPULATION OF HANDS-ON MATERIALS, STUDENTS DEVELOP INDEPENDENCE, CONFIDENCE, SELF-DIRECTION, SELF-DISCIPLINE, A POSITIVE ATTITUDE TOWARD SCHOOL, AND A LIFE-LONG LOVE OF LEARNING. CHILDREN ENJOY FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT AND CHOICE WITHIN A WELL-PLANNED, LOW PRESSURE, CHILD-PACED, PREPARED ENVIRONMENT. THIS ENVIRONMENT, DESIGNED WITH CLEAR AND CAREFULLY DEFINED LIMITS, MEETS THE NEEDS OF A MULTI-AGED, HETEROGENEOUS GROUPING OF STUDENTS.
