Text Box: " The child has to acquire physical independence by being self-sufficient...We have to help the child to act, will, and think for himself. This is the art of serving the spirit, an art which can be practiced to perfection only when working among children " 
(Montessori, The Absorbent Mind, p.257)

 

           Autana School is a Montessori bilingual and home based preschool program. We are welcoming all children 2 to 5 years old to our committed and culturally diverse community.

           We believe that all children are unique and marvelous. Since the time they are born, they have the great capacity to discover and create. They enjoy the simplest things in life. They are pure and happy.

           We believe that we are here to show them how wonderful and unique they are; to serve as guides in their process of discovering themselves and the world.

           We as teachers are  here to nurture them and protect their human nature: generous, kind, focused, hard-working and creative.
