About the Provider
International Montessori Schools strive to be leaders in innovative child education by providing exceptional Montessori programs that develop self-confident, independent and eager learners who are challenged to seek and achieve their full potential.
International Montessori Schools at Paoli is an academic adventure of discovery and friendship. The high ceilings, spacious classrooms, and extraordinary gardens make this location feel like a sanctuary of peacefulness. From the toddler classroom to the oldest children, strong friendships are built as children collaborate to explore academic principles that delight the heart and mind.
In the toddler room the children listen with rapt attention as they practice precise vocabulary and broaden their experience base by matching objects with their proper names. They explore colors by painting on the easel, practice order through the setting of their table for lunch, and learn turn- taking while reading books with a friend. They enjoy singing, uncovering wonders, and enjoying large motor practice in their outside environment complete with sand/water tables, playground equipment, and child size outdoor furniture.
The two primary classrooms are a joy to step into and invite the child to wander over to meet the friendly finches, build a creation with the hand-crafted Montessori sensorial blocks, or practice their fine motor finesse with the multitude of practical life materials. The children can often be seen dancing, playing instruments, counting beads, and using tiny tongs to transfer with glee. Remember to check the finch eggs to see if they have hatched!
