Montessori Moment

Our faculty are focusing on two major professional development topics this year.
First, integrate effective movement practices in the school day. Ms Antonia has been instrumental in providing enriching activities to meet physical developmental needs. Click HERE to read more.
Second, mindfulness. This practice of being present is based on a body of scientific research illustrating the positive effects of mindfulness training on mental health and well-being—at the level of the brain as well as at the level of behavior—grows steadily more well-established: It improves attention, reduces stress, and results in better emotional regulation and an improved capacity for compassion and empathy.
