THE MONTESSORI
The Montessori School of Covington provides a fully accredited Montessori educational curriculum. Annually, classroom teachers attend the Montessori Educational Programs International Conference (MEPI) in which they are introduced to new methods and curriculum based on Maria Montessori's methodology.
WHAT TO EXPECT IN
The Montessori classroom is referred to as a ‘prepared environment’. This environment encourages children to pursue their interests and to work independently at their own pace. Minimal use of wall displays, soft colors, and child-sized furnishings is the norm in this environment.
EDUCATING THROUGH HANDS-ON CONNECTION, INDEPENDENT THOUGHT AND PROBLEM-SOLVING, AT YOUR CHILD'S PACE
FROM AGE 3 THROUGH 8TH GRADE, OUR STUDENTS EXPERIENCE PROFOUND GROWTH WITHIN THESE MONTESSORI PRACTICES:
From measuring cups to ordering meals, learning practical life skills is essential to development of fine motor skills, gross motor skills and self-awareness. From Day 1 in age 3 through middle school, we follow the 4 categories of practical life which are: Care of Self, Care of the Environment, Grace and Courtesy and Control of Movement.
There are more than 300 "works" (in-class assignments) to complete within a 3-year cycle and all students can start with a different one! Our certified instructors demonstrate each work to a student, one-on-one, prior to the student commencing on their own. Each child will independently work on their work and will also work on multiple different works in the course of one-day.
Students will complete multiple, progressive iterations of works (each more challenging than before!) prior to fully completing an area of study (there can be 4 progressions of the same activities!). After all works within a task have been completed, students are qualified to assist other students in their activities journey. Students look fowrad to this as the best way to demonstrate mastery is to teach.

Ages 3 - 6 years old
For ages 3 - 6, the Early Childhood Classroom is organized into four major areas: practical life, sensorial, language arts, and mathematics. Practical life exercises include buttoning, food preparation, plant care, silver polishing and other activities that encourage self-care, environment care and care for others.
1st Grade • 2nd Grade • 3rd Grade
The Elementary Program expands and extends the structure of the preschool environment, offering individual and small-group instruction using beautiful and dynamic manipulations which present abstract ideas concretely. Our 1st through 3rd graders learn to master (and have exposure to): foreign language, mathematics, geometry, social studies and sciences (cultural studies), history, geography, art, music and physical education.
4th Grade • 5th Grade • 6th Grade
Moving into Upper Elementary is the bridged gap into Middle School! Upper Elementary fully connects all of the dots by providing the real experience in reading and writing comes through the child’s work in other areas of the curriculum, such as geography, history and botany.
7th Grade • 8th Grade
Through project-based learning, 7th - 8th graders will focus on project-based learning through real & relevant experiences, like internships and class-managed business enterprises. Paired with these hands-on practicums, all students will also focus on a GA-based core curriculum in which they prepare for high school expectations such as standardized testing, hone in on writing and public speaking skills and are well-equipped for a challenging, rigorous high school education.
Montessori School of Covington is Covington's most-established school for ages 3 through 8th grade. We prepare students for life through intentional education with focuses on practical life, empowered thought and indpendence.
