Merrimack Valley Montessori School Information

MVMS is dedicated to teaching the whole child. Of course, the academic components are important, and we provide that, with self-help and independence skills in our Practical Life, a personalized and natural progression in grading, sorting and classifying activities that we call Sensorial, and high quality Math, Language, Geography, Science, and Cultural studies. Individual or small group lessons, and a "work-time" that allows children to choose their own activities, give a rich and varied curriculum. Teachers link what the child is ready for, and interested in, and so learning feels relevant and enjoyable to the child (there's that "developmentally appropriate" again).
