Montessori education nurtures each child’s potential by aligning learning with natural development, fostering independence, curiosity, and lifelong growth.
Active listening helps children feel heard and understood, reducing outbursts and building stronger, more cooperative relationships at home and in the classroom.
Practical Life activities in Montessori foster independence, confidence, and a sense of belonging as children learn real-life skills through meaningful, hands-on work.
Montessori nurtures the will as a vital life force, guiding children from impulse to conscious choice, fostering independence, responsibility, and purposeful action.
The Montessori School of the Berkshires (MSB) is a private independent coed school which inspires children to develop independent thinking, self-assurance, inner discipline, and a love of learning in an authentic Montessori environment nestled in the scenic Berkshire hills. We serve children in toddler, preschool, elementary, middle, and adolescent programs. MSB is an equal opportunity employer and provider. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, gender, religion, sexual orientation, disability, cultural beliefs, marital status, or ethnic origin in employment or the administration of admissions programs or policies.
