What is the Montessori Method?
Components necessary for a program to be considered authentically Montessori include multiage groupings that foster peer learning, uninterrupted blocks of work time, and guided choice of work activity. In addition, a full complement of specially designed Montessori learning materials are meticulously arranged and available for use in an aesthetically pleasing environment. We use this philosophy in all of our programs and interactions with the children. (Source)
Our Founder
Our founder, Jeri Newsome, has a passion for children and their well-being. She and her family have built Scholastic Minds Academy from the ground up with her mother in mind. Her mother was an educator with decades of experience who believed in being a positive influence in her students’ lives. Newsome carries that with her every day that she steps through the doors of Scholastic Minds and instills that in her staff too. You can feel comfortable leaving your child knowing that they are in a safe, nurturing environment.
The Facility
We are located in a central location that is virtually less than 30 minutes from Savannah’s main neighborhoods. When you come to Scholastic Minds, you must gain access through our state-of-the-art security system that includes keypad entry, cameras inside and on all entry points, plus the latest in safety regulations. We have classrooms for infants all the way up to four-year-olds each complete with the tools that our teachers use to deliver the best. Your family can play, learn, and grow… together with us!
