Respectful, Responsible, Resourceful

Children are encouraged to become respectful by being in an environment where children of mixed ages, abilities, and backgrounds, work together; where adults model respectful behavior and where the manners and courtesies of our culture are presented and practiced.

Children become responsible by caring for themselves, their environment, and their community and by experiencing the results of their choices.

Children become resourceful by directing the course of their own day, making decisions and solving problems as they arise.

As stated above, the mission of Countryside Montessori School is to provide an environment which emphasizes the development of character, particularly the virtues of Respect, Responsibility, and Resourcefulness.
