About
Our Mission is to Prepare Children for Life.
We celebrate each child’s individuality and help them discover how they can best contribute to our world and culture. All children are naturally curious and love to learn; we support this innate drive by providing environments that meet children’s developmental needs, guided by a staff of loving and well-prepared adults and building a community of families that actively support our mission.
Our Mission
In our schools infants, toddlers, and young children learn that their independence is valued. We encourage free movement, choice within carefully crafted limits, and make sure they know their voices are heard. As children get older, they begin to learn about time management. We teach them practical life skills, such as cleaning and preparing food, that can be used in the classroom, home, and beyond. This emphasis on independence gives children a tremendous sense of empowerment.
“Our family is so grateful to Sandwich Montessori for opening The Academy Elementary program. My son had been with Sandwich Montessori for Pre-K and K. Staying at home for such a long time with the pandemic took a toll on his social confidence. The team at The Academy really went out of their way to help him transition back into the world of in-person schooling for his 1st grade school year. We can see such a difference in his overall behavior. He's happy, growing and thriving at school. We also love the outdoor structure of the program! We've been very conservative throughout the pandemic, and Sandwich Montessori School has taken every precaution to make us feel comfortable and confident sending our son to school there! The Academy team cares so much about doing what's best for the kids and SMS families. It shows in every way.” đź’›
