Cathedral Montessori School is an independent Montessori school, serving students ages 3-13. We believe in the transformative power of education and are dedicated to realizing each child’s potential through the joyful pursuit of knowledge.
MONTESSORI CLASSROOM
Maria Montessori designed a classroom—from the space to the materials—that illustrates the harmonious relationships between the shapes and structures of the world and those of the mind. Montessori classrooms are beautiful, orderly, and tidy; everything is natural, organized and meaningfully displayed. Learn more…
MOVEMENT TOWARD CHANGE
Cathedral Montessori School acknowledges that racism and privilege exist in our own lives, our community, and our society. We are committed to listening, to learning, and to serving as agents for the dismantling of systemic racism. This work is a long journey. We feel fortunate that the Montessori philosophy and the associated school culture at CMS helps to prepare our minds and hearts for this work. Read more…
“Education is a work of self-organization by which man adapts himself to the conditions of life.”
Students at CMS are part of a close, caring community that provides them with a sense of security and comfort as they become self-directed.
“The essential thing is to arouse such an interest that it engages the child’s whole personality.”
Children work for the joy of working and a sense of discovery; their interest lies in the work rather than in the end-product.
