The Montessori Method is at the heart of MSM. We believe that if children love coming to school, then the possibilities are endless! Montessori’s unique style of education is more than just that – it is a way of life! Children are given the space they need to develop at their own pace, able to move ahead or review as necessary. Classes are multi-aged, so that children can learn in a variety of ways. Younger children look up to the older children, and are motivated by what they are doing. Older children, in turn, are classroom leaders and role models, and learn by teaching the younger children. The development of leadership skills begins from the very start!

That is the Catholic school difference. Our goal through our Catholic schools is to provide your child with on-going formation in their faith, to develop each students’ God-given gifts, and to prepare them for success in higher education and the global marketplace.
