Barron Area School District

Montessori

The Barron Area Montessori School, taught at Woodland Elementary, gives students a sense of independence and freedom in their learning environment that sets it apart from the traditional classroom setting. The Montessori approach to learning provides a child-centered, individualized learning environment. The Montessori philosophy emphasizes the development of the whole child in a specially-designed environment that fosters his/her intellect, social, emotional, and physical development. A Montessori experience establishes a strong foundation for learning and an atmosphere that is imperative in fostering the development of a child's interests, skills and dreams.
