Staff
The staff at our school works with parents as a team to offer children
nurturing and loving programs. Most of the staff members including the teachers
and the director, are AMI certified teachers. Other staff members have a clear
understanding of Montessori philosophy and method of education.
In addition, we send all staff members for appropriate on-site training and to various workshops around the area.
Importance of a Second Language
Decatur Montessori School has native Spanish speakers in each classroom that speak Spanish to our children all the time. Learning Spanish as a second language at an early age will help our children become truly proficient in the language.
Studies have shown that children with a second language score higher on standardized tests and adapt better to different cultures and environments. In addition, learning a second language will give your children an advantage as they grow and compete in an increasingly challenging world.
