Parent Involvement

Since its inception, one of the aims of the Montessori Fountainhead School has been to create an environment where children - even those who have never been away from their parents - can quickly feel comfortable.

The constant overriding concern of the Montessori Fountainhead School is the development of the "whole child" through his/her sensitive periods and stages of physical and intellectual growth by means of creative education according to the principles and techniques conceived, elaborated, and refined by Dr. Montessori.

Frequent conferences with parents strengthen the necessary professional involvement in teacher-child relationships.
