To guide each child into the real world by helping them to acquire virtues of kindness self-discipline, critical thinking, self-reliance, pride and self-esteem.
To maximize the potential of each child through meaningful, creative programs, partnerships, and staff.
To create an educational atmosphere where students develop respect and responsibility for themselves, others, and the environment. Our graduates will attain the skills and commitment to make a worthwhile contribution to society and will be committed to being lifelong learners.
To partner with families in developing each child’s intellectual, social, emotional, and physical potential. Stepping Stone Montessori School will provide a quality Montessori program in keeping with the standards of the Association Montessori Internationale (AMI) and Georgia state standards.

The Montessori Method, created by Dr. Maria Montessori, is a child-centered approach to education based on scientific observations of children in a learning environment. The Montessori Method is fundamentally based on serving the whole child, academically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually. This Method of education has been time-tested for over 100 years, and is currently practiced in countries all over the world.

Our Nido room (“Nido” means nest) is a peaceful, nurturing environment carefully designed and guided following Maria Montessori’s principles for these specific ages (2-16 months). Our Montessori program begins at birth because this is the age when the child feels the unconscious passion and desire to internalize and learn through his/her environment.

The toddlers learn concentration, coordination, language skills, responsibility and respect—all of which prepare them well for a successful and bright future. Our Toddler environment supports the physical, cognitive, social and emotional development of each child. Toddlers strengthen speech and language development; also develop fine and gross motor skills as they explore self, family and the world in which they live.

Our teachers give our 3-6 year olds responsive, individualized attention to help them build their skills in these five important areas: Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, Math and Culture. This feeling of self-confidence, self-worth and responsibility is perhaps the greatest benefit and accomplishment of the Primary class.
