Woods Creek Montessori
Where learning begins naturally.
WCM Mission Statement.
Woods Creek Montessori is a state licensed non-profit cooperative school for children sixteen months to six years. It is staffed with teachers who assist each child’s growth of body, mind, and spirit in a stimulating, nurturing environment. At WCM, involved parents, staff and community members work together to foster love of learning, independence and self-confidence in an atmosphere of mutual respect.
Teaching Philosophy.
As members of the staff of Woods Creek Montessori School we believe that our role is to provide an atmosphere that respects each individual child and gives precedence to nurturing self-discipline, which then builds self esteem, and enables us to nurture the growth of the child in body, mind, and spirit. As Montessori teachers, we act as a catalyst and guide to help the child learn by doing. The level of difficulty in each lesson is presented in harmony with the child's readiness and the child is able to feel a greater sense of success and independence. Each child is encouraged to choose their activities and work within the classroom structure which provides an atmosphere of order and respect. We create the environment, provide the lessons, and guide each child as the child develops his or her own powers of critical analysis, creative problem solving, fact absorption, and the capacity for loving and understanding responses to others.
