About us

"We must look to the children as a vehicle for bringing change to humanity." -Maria Montessori The educational and care programs at Salem Montessori serve children from birth through adolescence in five different programs: Infant, Toddler, Primary, Elementary, and Middle School. In each program, we apply 'Montessori-philosophy' and practices, focusing on the cognitive, social, emotional and physical needs of each child. Salem Montessori strives to foster a love of learning in our students, while also working to educate children to be caring and socially responsible citizens of their community and world. Montessori classrooms are immediately recognizable. You will see children working independently and in groups, often with specially designed learning materials; deeply engaged in their work; and respectful of themselves and their surroundings. The Montessori Method fosters rigorous, self-motivated growth for children and adolescents in all areas of their development—cognitive, emotional, social, and physical. Montessori education is student-led and self-paced but guided, assessed, and enriched by knowledgeable and caring teachers, the leadership of their peers, and a nurturing environment. Within the community of a multi-age classroom—designed to create natural opportunities for independence, citizenship, and accountability—children embrace multi-sensory learning and passionate inquiry. Individual students follow their own curiosity at their own pace, taking the time they need to fully understand each concept and meet individualized learning goals.
