Dr. Montessori recognized the value of family support for children to gain the maximum benefit from a Montessori education. Family support is as important today as it was over one hundred years ago.
Why Family Matters
In keeping with Dr. Montessori’s ideas, parents and guardians are vital partners in the education process.
Research indicates that the successful Montessori program includes parent participation and partnership.
Parents and guardians provide a balance and reinforce the collaboration between school and home.
Due to their important place in the educational process, parents and guardians are valued, needed, and supported by AMI/USA, AMI schools, and AMI programs.
