Description: The mission of the Papillon Montessori School is to provide a rich educational experience for children that will inspire lifelong learners.
The mission is accomplished by maintaining an environment of honor, respect, and harmony that will assist the children in reaching their fullest potential.
We provide a Montessori curriculum that is holistic, flexible, and eclectic.
We develop a conscious awareness in order to foster a strong sense of community and cooperation with parents that will encourage involvement, education, and a peaceful experience.
We seek to embrace cultural and social diversity in our school community.
These are our core beliefs, and we will remain committed to them through the inevitable challenges of growth and change.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
