THE SCHOOL ENROLLED A TOTAL OF 77 CHILDREN. THE SCHOOL STRENGTHENED SPECIAL PROGRAMS, INCLUDING MUSIC, SPANISH AND ART.THE MONTESSORI APPROACH OFFERS A BROAD VISION OF EDUCATION AS AN AID TO LIFE. IT IS DESIGNED TO HELP CHILDREN WITH THEIR TASK OF INNER CONSTRUCTION AS THEY GROW FROM CHILDHOOD TO MATURITY. IT SUCCEEDS BECAUSE IT DRAWS ITS PRINCIPLES FROM THE NATURAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE CHILD. ITS FLEXIBILITY PROVIDES A MATRIX WITHIN WHICH EACH INDIVIDUAL CHILD'S INNER DIRECTIVES FREELY GUIDE THE CHILD TOWARD WHOLESOME GROWTH.MONTESSORI CLASSROOMS PROVIDE A PREPARED ENVIRONMENT WHERE CHILDREN ARE FREE TO RESPOND TO THEIR NATURAL TENDENCY TO WORK. THE CHILDREN'S INNATE PASSION FOR LEARNING IS ENCOURAGED BY GIVING THEM OPPORTUNITIES TO ENGAGE IN SPONTANEOUS, PURPOSEFUL ACTIVITIES WITH THE GUIDANCE OF A TRAINED ADULT. THROUGH THEIR WORK, THE CHILDREN DEVELOP CONCENTRATION AND JOYFUL SELF-DISCIPLINE. WITHIN A FRAMEWORK OF ORDER, THE CHILDREN PROGRESS AT THEIR OWN PACE AND RHYTHM, ACCORDING TO THEIR INDIVIDUAL CAPABILITIES.
