“We can only give to each individual the chance to fulfill his potential possibilities.” - Maria Montessori
Our Philosophy
A more beautiful world begins with the way we treat each other and our environment. Reaching towards one another in a spirit of gratitude and humility fosters a sense of connection to one’s community. At the root of our philosophy is the belief that the Montessori philosophy of education is valuable for our whole community of children and adults.
Elevate Montessori School has authentic Montessori philosophy as its core principle, established over 100 years ago by Dr. Maria Montessori, in poverty stricken tenement houses in Rome, Italy. In a Montessori classroom, students choose what they work on, follow their interests, move at their own pace and stick with topics until they’ve mastered them. Teachers guide children in prepared environments through a structured curriculum that ensures they cover core concepts and meet modern educational standards and more. Montessori integrates academic and socio-emotional objectives to educate the “whole child.”
In addition to Montessori, Elevate embraces four foundational pillars:
We are respectful, patient, loving
professional humans
that connect with our community
and are courageous to the core.
“The child is both a promise and a hope for mankind.” -Maria Montessori
Our Classrooms
We are located on the corners of F St. and Lewis St. - close to G St. Park, the fire station, the Farm to School garden, and downtown, which are frequented by our students.
Each classroom is carefully planned to encourage your child to fulfill their potential. Ours are filled with sunshine, natural elements, and gentle colors. Our compassionate, highly trained team will provide joyful Montessori learning for your child and support for your whole family.
We are now enrolling for our Infant, Toddler, Early Childhood (EC), and Kindergarten spots. Please contact us for more information, a tour or to meet us in person.
