### **Our Values**

Children • Joy of Discovery • Dedication to Mastery • Compassionate Love • Community

### **Our Vision**

We envision a time when Ross Montessori School will be an exemplary educational institution and recognized as such all over the world. Educators from all backgrounds will observe and learn from our model, grounded in the Montessori Method. Parents will choose our school over any other with a steadfast belief in the value we create for the children, families, and communities we serve.

Our children will be immersed in the joy of discovery. Programming will be enriched with art, music, and drama throughout all the seasons. Students will actively participate in community service projects and conservation programs, and every child will emerge as a creative and competent problem solver.

We will send citizens into the world who have a profound impact on their communities. They will face adversity and challenges with humility, grace and compassion. They will inspire others to better the Earth and its inhabitants. All who know them will be the better for it for generations into the future.
