Tree of Life Charter School

Following montessori philosophy, children are grouped by developmental levels rather than by grade levels, so there may be some overlapping of ages in classroom environments. Usually a student remains with The same guide, or teacher, for approximately three years, which allows The guide to learn The student's strengths, challenges, and interests in a more in-depth way. The multi-age classroom environments provide The opportunity for students to work at their unique levels of challenge. More importantly, they offer The chance for students to master skills and develop self-confidence by becoming teachers and leaders in their classroom community.
