The Montessori School of Rochester's mission is to nourish the child's spirit, while fostering exploration, independence, and confidence. We strive to inspire a lifelong love of learning, while modeling grace, courtesy, and respect for self, others, and the earth.

Our school is founded on a deep respect for children as individuals. We embrace the Montessori pedagogy, which is based on universal principles of child development, as sound theory and practice for teaching and learning. In addition, we are always looking to accepted current research to supplement our evolving understanding of human development.
