The Montessori School of Rochester

Every child is unique. A bright new member of a community and the world at large. And with the world changing so fast doesnt it make sense to provide your child with an educational foundation that nurtures a love of discovery creativity and self-mastery?

Montessori is preparation for life.

The Montessori School of Rochester (MSR) ties its teaching methods to the remarkable vision of Maria Montessori who was Italys first female physician. Her philosophy is built upon the idea that children develop and think differently than adults and that childrens needs are the most important in our societybecause children are the future of the world.

Everyone at the school is here to nurture your child and help you with the important work of guiding his or her intellectual emotional and physical development.

The Montessori method is centered on four guiding principles:

1. The directress (teacher) must observe each child in order to meet that childs needs. 2. Each student proceeds at his or her own pace in an environment designed to help with the process of learning. 3. Prescribed Montessori materials are at the heart of the learning process. 4. Teaching exercises feature repetition in materials because with repetition children learn to perfect their skills and increase their capabilities confidence and awareness.

Our directresses follow the Montessori traditions of observing and meeting the needs of each student in their care. This allows your child to develop the habits attitudes skills and ideas that lead to a lifetime of creative thinking and learning.
