Portrait of a Graduate

Portrait of a Montessori Academy Eagle

As we work together to fulfill our mission of supporting student success in school and in life, Montessori Academy of Broward actively fosters the development of skills that will empower students to be productive citizens of a global community and successful in the workforce of the future.

A MAB graduate is:

Respectful

Montessori students reflect the utmost respect for their teachers, environment, nature, the right of others, and the community in general. This trait is the core of the Montessori principles.

Self-disciplined

This is one of the great tasks in life. In order to discipline yourself, one must have the freedom to make choices. This freedom allows you to develop self-discipline.

Creative

Maria Montessori admired the creativity in every child. It is this creative mind that allows individuals to think, analyze, invent, seek different answers and solve problems with innovative ideas and solutions.

Self-motivated

This is one of the great tasks in life. In order to discipline yourself, one must have the freedom to make choices. This freedom allows you to develop self-discipline.

Organized

Montessori students learn the concept of time management at an early age. This is an essential skill that we must have in order to be successful throughout life.

Collaborative

The multi-age classroom allows students to learn to collaborate with their peers. Collaboration is developed through the opportunity of working with students at different developmental levels. Montessorians help each other in academic, social, and emotional tasks and are given the tools to help, collaborate, and develop resolution in all those aspects.

A leader

Montessori graduates possess great leadership skills. The confidence that they acquired through the years of Montessori education allows them to develop an essential level of self-discipline, responsibility, and high self-esteem. They have the skills to face the world with problem-solving skills and leadership to successfully become our future leaders.

I can honestly say that Montessori Academy has been able provide an excellent experience for each one of our 3 very different children. Our oldest is now taking honors classes at a college preparatory high school and scored in the 80th percentile overall on her PSAT, 87th percentile in reading and writing.

We could not be happier with the decision we made to keep our son at Montessori Academy and the investment we made in his education. He was challenged throughout the curriculum and received all the support he needed to graduate with a high academic standing and a deep sense of humanity.

I HIGHLY recommend Montessori Academy of Broward to anyone and everyone interested in giving the gift of a great all-around foundation to their kids. My daughter has thrived here not just academically, but emotionally as well. Montessori is not just a school—it's a family.

There are so many things I love about Montessori–from little things like EVERY teacher knowing EVERY child and their parents (and sometimes grandparents) by name to the safe, clean and professional learning environment they with all the tools they could want to prosper in their academic life, at their own pace.

Our son is now a happy young man who knows that he received the tools he needed to succeed and accomplish his dream of obtaining an academic scholarship at American Heritage High School. Not only did he get accepted into the honors program at an elite high school, but the rest of his graduating class did as well.
