Philosophy

At Verna Montessori, we know that a child learns best in a social environment designed to support individual development. By adhering to the Montessori Method, VMS provides a framework for your child’s academic achievement and social growth to blossom together, laying the foundation for a lifetime of creative and joyful learning, and nurturing your child’s development into a confident, independent, and engaged individual.

This foundational philosophy, inspired by the ideals of the founder of the Montessori method, Dr. Maria Montessori, and embodied in VMS by our founder, Blessed Antonia Maria Verna, opens up a whole new world of learning for your child in Western PA, as it has for generations.
