The
Farmington Academy Montessori offers a highly developed, scholastic
curriculum based on the use of didactic materials which inspire the
imagination and ignite the learning process.
Our educational philosophy is guided by the
teachings of Dr. Maria Montessori. We strive to inspire the development
of each child in a safe, supportive, culturally diverse environment,
which gives student's freedom to explore, cooperate, and be creative.
The school's child-centered
educational environment provides activities to each child's
developmental stage. The integrated curricula are guided by a highly
trained staff, which is aware of the needs of the individual child. The
children are in mixed-age settings, which allow them to build long-term
relationships with other children and their teachers within a caring
academic community.
The child's experience is
more complete when parents and family commit to an active role in their
child's education. Parent educational materials and programs encourage
parents' participation in the education process at each stage of the
child's development. As the school and home work together, the child
develops the confidence needed to venture out into the world and become
involved in projects which will serve the community. This dynamic
partnership of child, parent, and teacher, develops a consistent
Montessori framework for learning: "an education for life."
