What happens when a child leaves LCME?
Children who attend The Learning Circle Montessori Elementary School have been guided through a wholistic approach to education. These children display a love of learning as well as a strong self-image. LCME students are extremely adaptable because they have learned to work independently as well as in groups. They are exceptional problem-solvers and independent thinkers as they have been encouraged to make decisions from an early age. LCME students show outstanding communication skills with their peers and with adults as a result of sharing of ideas and mediation. They have also been taught to face challenges with optimism through self-directed, non-competitive activities. LCME students have demonstrated success in middle school years and beyond. If you have additional questions regarding LCME graduates please contact our office (585-3778). We have a long list of families who enjoy sharing their experience in Montessori education.
