Turtle River Montessori School's mission is to provide a learning environment which is wholly nurturing and respectful to the child; one in which children are valued individually and are free to learn independently at their own pace. Our Montessori Program invites children to develop a love of learning for a lifetime, and our goal is to create opportunities that encourage learning on many different levels, with the help of hundreds of specially designed three-dimensional, hands-on lessons that engage the children in a fun way. As well, we promote a peace curriculum that teaches the children conflict resolution with their peers. A child who has experienced a true Montessori environment is well-rounded, adept at conducting himself in his community of peers, and intellectually advanced due to exposure to varied concepts that foster intellectual and academic growth. Parents searching for the most optimal learning experience for their children - for the fullest growth and development possible, for the highest opportunities available for encouraging a lifelong, positive learning relationship resulting in a happy and successful individual - choose Turtle River Montessori.
