Like all Hope Montessori Academy schools, the Lake
St. Louis campus community nurtures each student’s fullest
potential while encouraging independence, self-assurance, self-motivation,
respect for others, and a love for learning. The trained Montessori
teacher creates opportunities for individual children in a mixed-age
community in which each child acquires and applies a breadth of
skills during a three-year learning “cycle.”
Our
Lake St. Louis campus is a year-round Montessori school. We offer
a variety of programs to meet our family’s needs, including
a comprehensive, full-time program, as well as part-time morning
classes. We supplement summertime with activities related to the
arts, field trips, nature hikes, swimming, and picnics.
