Where Every Child is Challenged to the Best of His or Her Ability and to their Fullest Potential

MISSION STATEMENT

New England School of Montessori promotes self confidence and joy through active learning, empowering the whole child to become a compassionate world citizen.

Our students' potential gracefully unfolds within a multiage environment, allowing the children to recognize and optimize their individual capabilities.

Quotes:

"When I began the school, I had one main idea: to make the school fit the child - instead of making the child fit the school."

Maria Zullo

"I have never let my schooling interfere with my education."

Mark Twain

"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

"It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education."

Albert Einstein

"What we learn to do, we learn by doing."

Thomas Jefferson

"Our goal is not so much the imparting of knowledge as the unveiling and developing of spiritual energy."

Dr. Maria Montessori

"You cannot teach a man anything; you can only help him to find it within himself."
