The Bridgeview Montessori School, guided by the educational philosophy of Dr.
Maria Montessori, provides a child-centered learning environment in which
students develop a love of learning that will sustain them throughout their
lives.
Our goals include: the development of the whole child emotionally, physically,
and intellectually; academic excellence gained through independent and
critical thinking; inspired learning through creativity, courage, passion,
personal responsibility and respect for self, others, and the world in which
we live.
We encourage our students to apprach their work and their world with a sense
of wonder, curiously, and the excitement of discovery. We value diversity and,
above all, we value a compassionate and peaceful community.
