West Side Montessori is a family-oriented educational community engaging and inspiring children to discover their potential within an environment promoting mutual respect, social responsibility, natural curiosity, and a love of learning. West Side Montessori campuses are located in Toledo and Perrysburg, Ohio and is one of only five accredited Montessori schools in the state of Ohio. West Side Montessori provides highly organized classroom learning environments that give children countless opportunities to move, make choices, and take charge of their own learning. For example, very young children are sorting and categorizing their world and are very sensitive to order in their lives. The Montessori classroom environment and materials are designed to aid the young child in the development of his or her sense of order. Montessori philosophy and curriculum promote an understanding and appreciation for the interconnectedness of all that exists and a consequent social policy that teaches we are stewards of the earth. Social outreach and community improvement service projects are an integral part of our curriculum. Cooperation and collaboration are cornerstones of the Montessori learning environment. Students work together, learn from one another, and support each other in a non-competitive atmosphere.
