What they do
STATEMENT of PHILOSOPHY - THE MONTESSORI ACADEMY ACKNOWLEDGES THE IMPACT of CRITICAL LEARNING PERIODS IN EARLY CHILDHOOD ON DEVELOPING SOCIAL, EMOTIONAL, INTELLECTUAL, PHYSICAL, and MORAL COMPETENCIES. THE INFLUENCE of A MONTESSORI-BASED EDUCATION RESPECTS THE UNIQUENESS of EACH PERSON and PRESERVES and NURTURES AN INNATE CAPACITY to REACH FULL POTENTIAL AS CONTRIBUTING WORLD CITIZENS. THIS is ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH INDIVIDUALLY PACED ACADEMIC INSTRUCTION and ACTIVITIES DIRECTED BY MONTESSORI CERTIFIED PROFESSIONALS WORKING IN CONCERT WITH STUDENTS and THEIR FAMILIES. OUR CURRICULUM PROVIDES for CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT and SKILL ACQUISTIONS IN PREPARED CLASSROOMS WITH A FOCUS ON LEARING-BY-DOING. OUR METHODS ENABLE STUDENTS to DEVELOP RESPECT for INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES AS THEY ENGAGE IN PURPOSEFUL, COLLABORATIVE LEARNING. OUR STUDENTS USE INNER DISCIPLINE, CONCENTRATION, and TASK COMPLETION for LIFELONG CRITICAL THINKING and DISCOVERY.

Money made simple
Ask these three easy questions
- Who did you help? Ask for a recent story or report that shows real results.
- What will my money do? Ask exactly what your gift will pay for.
- Is this really the charity? Give only through its official website or confirmed phone number.
Worth asking: Expenses exceeded revenue this year. Ask whether that was planned or caused by a one-time event.
Bottom line: Do not decide from a name, mission statement, or tax status alone. Look at where the money went, then ask what changed, who was helped, and what your gift will do. YouCanGiveBack does not endorse or grade organizations.
