Why choose Montessori
for your
child? |
| Children learn to be: organized, self-reliant, respectful,
cooperative, confident, and develop the ability to take responsibility for
their own actions. |
| What does Montessori mean? |
| The essence of Montessori education is that every child is
treated with respect, given freedom within the limits of a carefully structured
environment, and allowed to develop naturally at his or her own pace.
|
| When to start a Montessori
education? |
| "The most important period of life is not the age of university
studies, but the first one, the period from birth to the age of six. For that
is the time when man's intelligence itself, his greatest implement is being
formed." Dr. Maria Montessori in The Absorbent Mind |

Enrolment
Made Easy
We want you to know that we understand how busy you are.
Most of our procedures are set up to accommodate your schedule, including an
easy way to begin enrolment.
All of the documents you'll need are
listed below. Simply print, complete and fax them or bring them with you
when you visit.
When it comes to getting to know your family, however,
we do like to take some time. The Parent Interview and Child Assessment
give us valuable insight into your goals and your child's
needs.

York Montessori School admits and does not discriminate students of
any sex, race, colour, creed, or ethnic origin to all the rights,
privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available
to students at the school.
YMS looks for children and parents who share our philosophy, and believe
that each child is unique and should be recognized as someone special,
who also know that their children in order to learn must feel safe,
accepted, and competent in an environment that is encouraging, nurturing,
supportive and challenging.
The admissions process begins with a tour of the school
and meeting the teachers. After the applicant has been accepted, there will be
a formal meeting with the child, parents and the teacher.
This session
will give the parents, child, and the school staff a chance to get acquainted
with each other. Once the enrolment form is submitted, the appropriate fees
and deposits are collected.
We look forward to meeting you and your
child.
