Barrie Montessori focuses on the uniqueness of each child, supporting optimum learning experiences, and integrating a hands-on Montessori approach.
At Barrie Montessori, we embrace toddler through elementary students with learning profiles as unique as their fingerprints. Each child brings unique strengths and challenges into our highly structured learning environment. Teachers supportively understand that every child may not developmentally follow the exact same road map to excellence or achieve concept mastery within the exact same time frame. I invite you to be an active partner with your child in their learning journey!
The Montessori classroom is designed as a safe and secure environment for social and emotional learning which is taught, practiced and occurs spontaneously. Nurturing each child’s spirit is a sacred charge. As children walk in the door, they are welcomed warmly with respect and joy. Each child is someone who matters to the teacher. Teacher modeling of caring and compassion are tangible lessons transmitted to children.
