Montessori Of Frankfort Celebrates Kindergarten Graduation

For three years the children have been actively learning under the Montessori method, giving children the tools, they need for success as they begin their grade school years. During the ceremony, each child gave a speech about their experiences and what they are most looking forward to next year in first grade.

"The day was emotional, but we all felt very proud of the children." said Linda Mora, director of Montessori of Frankfort. "For three years we watched these amazing children blossom with so much pride. They have developed into independent and eager learners, so now it's time they spread their wings and tackle grade school with enthusiasm and confidence," Mora continued.

For example, art appreciation and history, geography, biology, chemistry, algebra and geometry are all subjects that children at Montessori of Frankfort are exposed to from age three to kindergarten.
