Gateway Montessori School is a nonprofit corporation established in 1982, and is located in the heart of Longmont, CO. At Gateway our belief is that parents are the primary educators of their young children. We work with parents to provide the best possible advantages for their children from preschool through kindergarten. For over thirty years, Gateway has set the standard for providing the highest quality Montessori experience in the Longmont area. Our unwavering commitment to classic Montessori principles set us apart.
The Montessori Method is a child-centered educational approach that recognizes the child as naturally eager for knowledge and capable of initiating learning when provided with a supportive, thoughtfully prepared environment and sequential, hands-on learning materials. It is an approach that values the human spirit and the development of the child as a whole.We believe that the task of childhood is to create the adult. We attempt to aid the child in creating the best possible “adult self” by structuring a special, child-oriented environment which meets the needs of each individual within the context of a peer group.
Montessori is neither a rigid system nor it is a “free for all”. It is a highly structured program which allows the child to experience a great deal of personal freedom within well-defined limits. Each child has a measure of freedom; each child is expected to assume a measure of responsibility.
