Montessori Academy of West Covina, West Covina

Developed by Maria Montessori, the Montessori method of education is tried and tested with more than a century of proven success with children at the early stages of life. Montessori schools feature a balanced curriculum that includes academics, wellness, self-awareness, conflict resolution, citizenship, and physical education. To assist in academic achievement, the method emphasizes problem solving, critical thinking, and creative expression. In both our infants and toddlers program and our preschool and kindergarten program, children inspire one another to become powerful learners. This is achieved by developing responsibility and independence, working cooperatively, accepting challenges, appreciating diversity, practicing effective communication, encouraging effective leadership, becoming risk takers, and building awareness.
