THE ACADEMY SERVED 169 STUDENTS DURING THE FISCAL YEAR.OUR PROGRAM PROVIDES STUDENTS THE TOOLS TO ACQUIRE INNER SELF-DISCIPLINE AND SELF-ESTEEM; TO ACHIEVE ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE; TO DEVELOP A LOVE FOR LIFE LONG LEARNING; TO LEARN MORAL AND SPIRITUAL PRINCIPLES; AND TO ACHIEVE THEIR HIGHEST POTENTIAL.THROUGH THE ACADEMIC AND EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING PROCESS DEVELOPED BY DR. MARIA MONTESSORI AND ENHANCED BY A CHRISTIAN BASED FOUNDATION, STUDENTS WILL LEARN TO CARE FOR AND RESPECT THEMSELVES, OTHERS, AND THE ENVIRONMENT. THE UNIQUE CYCLE OF LEARNING PROVIDED AT GRACE MONTESSORI ACADEMY IS DESIGNED TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE CHILD'S SENSITIVE PERIODS THAT OCCUR BETWEEN THE AGES OF THREE TO SIX AND SIX TO NINE WHEN CHILDREN ABSORB INFORMATION AND PROFOUND LIFE UNDERSTANDINGS FROM A SPECIFICALLY ORDERED AND ENRICHED ENVIRONMENT. GRACE MONTESSORI ACADEMY CREATES A CHRISTIAN, NURTURING ATMOSPHERE WHERE EACH CHILD IS TREATED WITH SENSITIVITY, HONESTY AND RESPECT. IN THE EARLY CHILDHOOD CLASS, THE CHILDREN LEARN TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEMSELVES AND FOR EACH OTHER. THEY LEARN TO GET ALONG WITH CHILDREN OF DIFFERENT AGES AND ABILITIES, TO RESPECT EACH OTHER'S WORK AND WORK SPACE, AND TO TREAT EACH OTHER WITH COURTESY. THE CLASSROOM BECOMES A THRIVING COMMUNITY WHERE CHILDREN ARE TREATED WITH RESPECT AND DIGNITY AND WANT TO TREAT OTHERS WITH THE SAME RESPECT AND DIGNITY. THE ELEMENTARY-AGED CHILD IS IN A PERIOD OF HEIGHTENED SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT. MULTI-AGED GROUPINGS MEAN MORE SMALL-GROUP OPTIONS RELATIVE TO ABILITY AND INTEREST. THESE CHILDREN ARE ALSO EXTREMELY CURIOUS ABOUT THE WORLD AROUND THEM AND MECHANICS OF HOW THINGS WORK.GRACE MONTESSORI ACADEMY DOES NOT DISCRIMINATE ON THE BASIS OF GENDER, RACE, COLOR, NATIONAL ORIGIN, DISABILITY, RELIGION OR AGE IN THE ADMINSTRATION OF ITS EDUCATIONAL POLICIES, ADMISSIONS POLICIES, AND ALL OTHER SCHOOL-ADMINISTERED PROGRAMS. OUR TEACHERS EMPHASIZE MORAL INSTRUCTION, KINDNESS, AND COMPASSION TO ALL CHILDREN.
