Casa Ninos School Of Montessori programs have been carefully designed to meet the educational, social, and developmental needs of our children.
Our staff is dedicated to giving each child at our school a foundation in these early years, because the future is our children.
Casa Nios School of Montessori, Inc. is a year-round program, offering an authentic Montessori curriculum. Our calendar is designed to strike a balance between school time and recreation time, with many family-oriented activities scheduled throughout the year.
Montessori materials are designed to capture the child's attention and to correspond to inner needs and interests.
After a teacher introduces the child to a material, the child is free to use the materials whenever he likes, for as long as he wishes, undisturbed by others.
Each material is self-correcting. If the child makes a mistake, he can see it for himself, without an adult to point out his errors.
