Welcome to Wedgwood Montessori! Wedgwood Montessori Preschool & Kindergarten is a year-round, full-day Montessori school with 20 years of history serving children 3yrs - 6yrs old in Seattle's Wedgwood Community. We offer three different full-day schedules as well as full and part-week schedules. As an organization we are committed to continuing Maria Montessori’s work towards her vision of a world where education recognizes the wisdom of childhood and enhances children’s intrinsic gifts.
Through engaging in simulations of everyday activities children develop skills to foster independence while also learning the healthy habits of sharing space, working materials, solving problems, taking constructive criticism and giving compliments in positive ways.
Dr. Montessori believed children, if guided to the full realization of their potential, held the power to ultimately regenerate humanity. She called this potential the “secret of childhood” and envisioned a future crafted by adults who had unlocked this secret and guided society to a way of being where humanity’s mission would be to know, love, and serve.
She developed a process of education that is attuned to the child’s inner drives, promotes the beneficial interaction of the child and his surroundings, and that leads to the child’s mastery of himself and his environment.
She believed, and it has been proven, that this process can develop children who are confident, competent, self-disciplined, spiritually strong, and thus, able to work cooperatively for the benefit of society. She believed that such children would lead to the creation of a better world. We, who share her vision, believe that its realization is more vital today than ever before.
