Given the independence and support to question, to probe deeply, and to make connections, Montessori students become confident, enthusiastic, self-directed learners. They are able to think critically, work collaboratively, and act boldly—a skill set for the 21st century. As you know, Pinnacle is a STEAM school that focuses on student inquiry. The Montessori method will allow our students to pursue their own self-paced curriculum, either individually or in small groups, within an environment that will allow for individualized growth.
We optimize sustained concentration, allowing a child to develop not just the ability to make choices but also the joy of sticking with them. We employ materials and activities that are well-designed. The Montessori learning materials are organized in such a way that they provide a child with core learning experiences in motor control, sensorial exploration, numeracy, literacy, and human culture that build on one another. As a result, you gain the invaluable benefit of basic knowledge and abilities, as well as the habit and pleasure of lifelong learning.
