Georgetown Montessori School at 1041 Wisconsin Avenue NW is a Montessori early childhood education program in the upper Georgetown commercial district, sharing the Wisconsin Avenue address with the Georgetown Lutheran Church and the Georgetown Ministry Center. The Montessori program provides the Georgetown family with the specific educational approach that Maria Montessori developed in Rome in the early twentieth century and that has been adopted globally as one of the most research-supported early childhood education methods.

The Montessori method’s core principles, which distinguish the Montessori classroom from the conventional early childhood program, include the child-directed learning that allows the child to select the Montessori materials and the activities from the prepared environment; the mixed-age classroom that groups the children in the three-year age span that allows the older child to mentor the younger and the younger child to observe the older child’s more advanced work; and the Montessori materials, which are the specific didactic tools that Maria Montessori designed to allow the child to discover the mathematical, the language, and the sensorial concepts through the hands-on manipulation of the material.

The Georgetown family market for the Montessori education reflects the neighborhood’s specific demographic: the Georgetown professional parent who applies the same research-informed approach to the early childhood education decision that the Georgetown professional applies to the other significant decisions of the professional life.
