A Montessori inspired, Project-Based curriculum is taught at Mountain View.
Montessori and Project Based both focus in on Hands-on activities, independent thinkers, developing the whole child, nurturing natural curiosity and creativity and the love of learning.
Project Based and Montessori hopes students emerge with better problem-solving skills and keen social-emotional intelligence. In addition, we want our students to be self-confident, adaptable and independent learners.
Project-Based Learning is the vehicle by which our students will learn 21st Century Skills. It involves students moving from the passenger seat to the driver’s seat. It begins with a driving question that is content driven. For example, “How does our school impact the environment?”
