Montessori School of Wooster
We follow the philosophy of Maria Montessori, the Italian physician who pioneered a new approach to education. Over the last one hundred years, her methods have been refined and expanded. There are a few central ideas that characterize Montessori education: we believe that children learn by doing, that the classroom should center on children (far more than on the teacher), that provided the space, children will learn how to navigate the world with independence and confidence, that the best education is motivated by children's curiosity rather than by external rewards and punishments. All of this we boil down to the principle: follow the child.

Our foundation rests upon acknowledging Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and the Bible as the Word of God - the final authority in truth and practice (II Timothy 2:15). We strive to assist each student to grow in excellence spiritually, academically, socially, and physically (Luke 2:52) through the Godly ministry and examples of teachers, administrators, board members, and staff (Titus 1:5-16). The goal of Wooster Christian is to prepare students who, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, will serve the home, local church, community, nation, and world (Matthew 28:18-20).
