Our carefully structured and comprehensive curriculum is based on the physiological needs of the child and incorporates reality-based activities tailored to each child’s individual ability level and pace of learning. Our intention is to help each child develop their full potential in all areas of life. We encourage exploration and discovery as our students learn, allowing them to progress at their own rate in a safe and nurturing environment. Our program is designed to foster independence and growth in every aspect of a child’s life, from physical to emotional to intellectual. At our school, we strive to provide children and their families with a unique educational experience that respects the profound ideas of Dr. Maria Montessori.

Through order, structure, and reality-based activities, we ensure that each child is learning at their own pace and ability level. We strive to help them reach their full potential by encouraging exploration and discovery.

Melrose Montessori School

Melrose Montessori is a small school located in heart of Melrose, Massachusetts. Conveniently located adjacent to the Melrose Public Library in the Unitarian Universalist Church. We offer a Montessori primary program for children ages 2 years 9 months through 5 years and an elementary program for ages 6 through 12. Our teachers are trained through either the Association Montessori Internationale or the American Montessori Society. We strive to hold true to the original principles of Dr. Maria Montessori to provide the children an optimal Montessori experience. Time is set aside daily for music and movement, aerobics, yoga or pre-sport physical activities for the development of gross-motor skills. All new materials are presented on a one-to-one basis. In each activity, difficulties are analyzed and the presentations are characterized by brevity, simplicity and objectivity. The didactic materials provide an built-in “control of error” which enables the child to correct himself and thus succeed through his own efforts. Discipline is maintained by directing the child’s attention and energies into constructive channels. Self-discipline, self-assurance and security gradually develop as the child learns to recognize and accept both the scope and the limitations of the environment.
