MISSION   Oconomowoc Montessori School is committed to providing excellence in Montessori education. Our mission as educators is to foster independent, confident, academically prepared, and socially responsible citizens, who will be lifelong learners and problem solvers. We will grow and evolve to meet the needs of our children, parents, and community.     GOALS   A well thought out stimulating environment, with safe limits in which the child can become an active explorer and learner, provides the child with a foundation for a lifetime love of learning. Building this foundation includes experiences that:   •    Develop respect for themselves, for others, and for their environment    •    Encourage a sense of wonder and curiosity towards learning and the world    •    Engender a global perspective and sense of international understanding    •    Develop social skills, emotional growth, physical coordination, as well as cognitive preparation    •    Build self-confidence, self-esteem and self-motivation    •    Develop skills in observation, questioning and listening    •    Lengthen each child's attention span and the natural desire to learn    •    Develop social graces and courtesy    •    Encourage creativity in each child      We offer toddler, preschool, kindergarten, after school and summer programs for children ages 21 months to 6 years. Programs are half day or full day. Discounts offered for families enrolling more than one child.
