Welcome!

 Who we are

We are Grenada Montessori & Preparatory School (GMPS).  We are  a non-profit school offering high quality, individualized education for children from 3 months to 12 years of age.  Our programs offer the internationally-esteemed Montessori system of education, beginning with our Infant and Toddler program where we accept children as early as 3 months.  Our Casa dei Bambini (Children's House) class is for children 2.5 to 5 years. Then the children move into our Lower Elementary class for Grades 1 to 3 and on to our Upper Elementary class for Grades 4 to 6.

 

Who was Maria Montessori?

Dr. Maria Montessori (1870-1952) was the first woman to graduate as a physician in Italy. Working with underprivileged children in the slums of San Lorenzo, she developed a revolutionary method of teaching young children. Observing that the child best learns with the hands, she created a child-oriented environment with hands-on materials which she designed to stimulate the child’s intelligence and senses.

Our Belief

We believe that every child has a right to the best possible educational experience which will fulfill his or her various needs,    and allow him/her to realize his/her full potential.


Our Values

RESPECT: respect for the body, mind, emotion and spirit of the child, the family, the community and the environment through celebrating similarities and differences.

COMMITMENT: a commitment to excellence and to the whole child by addressing his or her social, emotional, intellectual, physical and spiritual being/needs.
