Montessori School of Hacienda Heights, Hacienda Heights

Learning never stops at South Hills Academy Montessori. From 6 weeks through Kindergarten, concrete objects provide deep understanding of abstract principles. There is an integrated curriculum designed to parallel human development. Children are recognized as individuals and their education is not restricted to lectures addressed to the whole class. They are given the freedom to explore and excel, the responsibility to learn and teach, and the opportunity to collaborate and serve-ensuring their development into educated, virtuous young adults.Students explore, refine motor skills, increase language in a language rich environment, and move toward independence in a safe, warm, stable environment where the child acquires the skills to "do it myself". Let us take the child out to show him real things instead of making objects which represent ideas and closing them up in cupboards. - Maria Montessori
