Our Mission is to prepare students to become independent thinkers, resourceful problem solvers, life-long learners and positive contributors in our society by focusing on the development of the whole child: intellectually, socially, emotionally and physically.
The Montessori Method is an activity-based program that utilizes both self-directed individual and small group learning. Integrating work across subject areas, the program responds to the developmental needs of the whole child, and cultivates respect and appreciation for the environment and the celebration of all peoples of the world. The effectiveness of the educational method has been proven for more than 100 years, across cultures and continents.
Each classroom at LCMCS features a complete set of Montessori materials, and Oregon-credentialed and Montessori-trained teachers. LCMCS is affiliated with the Association Montessori Internationale, the Oregon Montessori Association, and the United States Charter School Association.
Enrollment in LCMCS is by lottery, which ensures a fair process for entrance into an excellent, tuition-free elementary Montessori program. The school strives to foster an inclusive, supportive and diverse community, with an active parent body. Before and After School Programs are provided by an independent contractor at our site.
