Greetings from the Executive Director

Thank you for visiting our web site at Northern Kentucky Montessori Center (NKMC). You have taken a first step towards insuring your child’s optimal development during what scientists know to be the most crucial years of the life of a human being, the years of birth to six.

Maria Montessori, one of the first female physicians in Italy, was a brilliant, forward thinker. Like many scientists, she was on the cutting edge of discovery. Only now, 100 years after bringing her educational philosophy to the United States, is current science catching up to what she determined through years of observation and study. Montessori’s pioneering work proved that children, whether learning disabled, average or gifted, learned best when engaged in purposeful activity, rather than simply being fed information.
