What Is CCMA Montessori?
CCMA Montessori is an individualized approach to education for children from toddler through high school that helps each child reach full potential in all areas of life. It is a student-centered approach that encourages creativity and curiosity and leads children to ask questions, explore, investigate and think for themselves as they acquire skills.
A CCMA Montessori environment focuses more on a student’s learning than on a teacher’s teaching. Specially trained CCMA Montessori teachers guide, coach and facilitate each child’s learning through continuous observation and assessment.
“Our aim is not merely to make children understand, and still less to force them to memorize, but so to touch their imaginations as to enthuse them to their innermost core.” – Dr. Maria Montessori
Why are we Unique?
We are a collaborative Montessori community.
We embrace diversity of high quality Montessori teacher training while upholding standards.
We encourage administrators to introduce a culture of Self Reflection in their schools and in their commitment to ongoing improvement.
We encourage mentorship.
How Is Creativity Encouraged?
Creativity thrives in an atmosphere of acceptance and trust. Montessorians recognize that children, from toddlers to teenagers, learn and express themselves in a very individual way. Making choices, taking risks, self-correction of mistakes, openess to different perspectives, and the growth of self-confidence all encourage creativity to flourish.
