Ithaca Montessori School Social Networks

IMS offers a traditional Montessori education for children ages 3 months - 6 years old. We offer: Specially trained teachers who carefully observe and respect children’s individual needs and interests. A multi-age environment which allows younger children to learn from older children and older children to master their own skills through teaching. Each classroom is 800-1,200 square foot filled with beautiful, hands-on Montessori materials. A curriculum that helps children develop independence, self-discipline, and a lifelong love of learning. Partnerships with parents in the healthy growth and development of their children. A safe and loving environment that fosters compassion and respect for others. Why we’re different At IMS, we focus on the development of the “whole child”. The primary goal of our program is to help each child reach their full potential in all areas of life: cognitive, social, emotional, and physical. Each of our classrooms is a carefully prepared environment where each child experiences the joy of learning with gentle guidance from our special teachers.
