Fallbrook Montessori school is a thoroughly positive environment for children.
Here children work at their own pace and at their own level.
Habits and skills developed in a Montessori classroom remain for a lifetime.
Each child is taught individually, with the unique opportunity to fulfill his/her own potential.
Montessori classrooms are a land of joyful learning for the child, and they are a marvelous place for children to grow.
Teachers guide a child's development by directing choices and encouraging the development of individual interests.
Montessori materials have an inherent control of error. The child can observe and correct errors by him/herself, thus contributing to the construction of his/her own knowledge.
