School Mission

Our mission is to foster the naturally developing minds of children. We believe Montessori is a way of life. The environment and works are meant to develop a child’s confidence in themselves. We provide a child-centered environment; where each child has responsibility and ownership over the classroom as well as their learning. We want to mentally empower, build self-confidence and work ethic that will last a lifetime.


Our Center

     We promote a fun learning experience while creating a substantial foundation of education every young child deserves. Rogue Valley Montessori uses the Montessori approach to educate children between the ages of 3.0 to 9.5 years old, from Preschool through Fourth Grade. We promote a bilingual and multi-cultural classroom experience.  
​       We focus on concept development in order to provide the best foundation for abstraction in later years. We bring nature back into the classroom to inspire a child's natural rhythm, bring tranquility, and respect for our planet. We offer a mixed aged classroom experience, developmentally appropriate natural didactic materials, guidance, and a child directed learning experience.

Additional Benefits
 
Balanced Educational Environment 
     We provide students with a balance their young minds need. Children are exposed to work through group lessons, one-on-one lessons, and student teacher lessons. Montessori work sessions allow children to get into a quiet workflow free of distractions a child can self-reflect and self-teach. Children are given the option to be both students and teachers. 
     Play is also essential for a young child. Creative play is encouraged in the early mornings and afternoons to build on their creativity and out of the box thinking. A mixture of outside play and yoga provide their physical activity demands.  A peaceful rest time, with stories, or yoga teaches them self-soothing and calming skills. 
We must help the child to act for himself, will for himself, think for himself; this is the art of those who aspire to serve the spirit. -Dr. Maria Montessori
