A Message from Our Principal
Dear Park Road Montessori Community,
I would like to take this opportunity
to welcome you to Park Road Montessori School.
The goal of Park Road Montessori School
is to provide an optimal learning environment that is based upon
Montessori pedagogy that will guide, develop and nurture the
individual child. Respect for the child is the foundation of PRM’s
philosophy.
The staff of Park Road Montessori believes strongly that the needs of
the child come first - children, not subjects are taught. The
Montessori Method is based on careful observation of and respect for
the natural development of the child and has been used to educate
children in America and around the world for over 90 years.
Our staff also believes in the importance of instilling intrinsic
motivation in our children so that they can begin to take on the
responsibility of their learning. Within our nurturing environment,
students can begin their quest to become active, life-long learners.
Furthermore, there is also a focus on social and emotional growth
that helps students become better citizens of the world.
From the first day of school,
our students are
given freedom along with responsibility. In the Primary grades,
students begin to develop lifelong habits to help them focus on,
organize and find satisfaction in their work. In Lower and Upper
Elementary, those habits are further developed into a strong
educational foundation because our students have learned how to work
independently and collaboratively, how to think, and how to see tasks
through to completion. Expectations for doing one's best, working
hard, and serving the community are part of the school's everyday
life.
We welcome you to visit Park
Road Montessori and we
look forward to showing you what makes our school so special.
Anna Moraglia
Principal, Park Road Montessori
