Montessori School
150 N. Riverside, Chicago, IL
Inspired by the Montessori methodology, our project promotes a non-linear flow of learning where students are encouraged to engage with their education by exploring, interacting, and connecting with their surroundings in meaningful ways. This environment provides a spectrum of stimulation levels for each child’s needs.
