Our Philosophy

What We’re All About

Hallandale House of Learning Montessori is dedicated to the philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori in the belief that her teachings provide a scientifically based system, which not only helps the child during early development but throughout lif e. We adopted the Montessori philosophy which is based on love for the child, respect for the child’s dignity as a person, and a strong desire to help the child realize his or her fullest potential in society. We respect our children’s progress at their own pace and provide them with the support needed for their physical, emotional, social and intellectual normal development. At Hallandale House of Learning, we strive to meet the needs of all of the children and families in our school.

 

Our primary goals are to provide a clean, safe, comfortable, loving, home-like environment where all children can learn and be respected, regardless of their differences. Respect towards self, others, and the environment will be emphasized. We believe in the value of both structured and flexible schedules. We will do many "messy activities", and we will do our best to maintain cleanliness and order, but fun and the well-being of the children will always take precedence over cleaning. We will achieve this in the following ways:

 

• In the classroom, the teachers will provide a safe, comfortable, stimulating and educational setting where all children will be exposed to culture, diversity, music, art, and literature.

 

• We believe that every child can learn to have good manners and respect others.

 

• We know that children need, expect and deserve to be guided in ways that will help them be safe, happy, and well adjusted.

 

• We believe that every area of development (physical, emotional, intellectual, spiritual) must be  acknowledged and provided to the child.

 

• We will help to develop your child’s self-esteem through a mixture of guided and undirected creative play where children participate, voice their opinions and feelings, and to discover what makes them "wonderful me".
