The founders of Casa Nios School of Montessori, Inc. had a dream – a dream to create and establish the best authentic Montessori program in Tucson, perhaps even in the Southwest. The dream started to take shape in 1991. With dedication, determination, hard work, adapting to a dynamic environment, and meeting the needs of our families, the dream took flight and became a reality. Today, Casa Nios School of Montessori, Inc. is a successful incorporated program and proof that dreams do come true.

Montessori materials are designed to capture the childs attention and to correspond to inner needs and interests. After a teacher introduces the child to a material, the child is free to use the materials whenever he likes, for as long as he wishes, undisturbed by others. Each material is self-correcting. If the child makes a mistake, he can see it for himself, without an adult to point out his errors.
Montessori materials are open-ended. The teacher suggests a first use for the material. After that, the child may discover many other uses. Sometimes a child may encounter the materials at different age levels, with increasingly sophisticated work possibilities suggested at each level.
Our Curriculum: Dr. Montessori realized that the childhood years could be divided into definite multi-year periods. She found that each period has its own characteristic attitude, challenge, and need.
