Moving Up Classroom Visits

Next week, WMS families have the opportunity to learn more about their child’s next steps as they move from one program level to the next. If your child is moving to a new level for the 2023-24 school year, we encourage you to join us for an upcoming classroom observation. Though our Montessori foundation remains strong throughout each program at WMS, you will notice age-appropriate differences as you explore the next steps in your child’s education.

As children grow and learn how to navigate their world, they continue to work toward the goal of independence. That can mean everything from learning to put their coats on, writing their names, or running a classroom business. They look to the adults around them to gauge their response to their efforts and determine how they will respond to a request that requires new or unfamiliar skills. As your children grow, so do expectations. The ways in which we might help a Primary (3-6) student are quite different from the support we offer a sixth-grader. 

WMS is a place where children are known, affirmed and prepared - for the next steps in their learning journey and their lives. We look forward to sharing more about our programs and welcome opportunities to continue the conversation about why WMS is the best school for children from 12 months through 14 years old.
