Mission Statement

The Montessori Children’s School of Key West, Inc., is a child-centered Montessori school, serving ages 18-months through kindergarten. Our purpose is to nurture and guide children to become self-directed, responsible individuals of their community, by instilling solid foundations in humanitarianism and peace.

Our Vision

The vision of the Montessori Children’s School of Key West is an ever-evolving exercise in our effort to continually enhance our students experience with our curriculum, on campus and throughout our community. Our goal is to enrich our children’s educational environment with integrated teaching, allowing each Directress to teach her specialty or expertise to all students, while not interfering with the day-to-day work cycle occurring in each classroom. In addition, we envision more attention to the arts and music during the course of the day. Little by little we are making our campus more green and environmentally friendly. We hope to instill in our students a nurturing respect for nature and hope to employ our outdoor area for more outside classroom instruction. And in our community, we strive to teach our students about the importance of giving back both in time and service to others, while instilling a respectful understanding of what makes us different and cherish the underlying characteristics we share.
