Want Your Kids to Learn? Teach Them It’s Okay to Make Mistakes

It’s normal for parents to want to protect their children from failure. It’s also normal to want them to achieve, win, and do their best.

The Fulton School is a toddler-through-12th-grade Montessori community in Chesterfield. The Montessori Method will blow you away. The early childhood programs focus on the foundation necessary for the rest of their education while also developing their self-confidence and character. The children work hard, but it feels like play because the beautiful environment is built just for them. Montessori-trained teachers prepare the environment with tried-and-true, research-proven materials to keep the children engaged and excited to learn. Students grow from concrete, hands-on learners to abstract thinkers, beginning with early reading and math skills.

Classrooms span three age levels, which allows teachers to build strong relationships and develop a deeper understanding of each child’s learning style over the course of three years. Children benefit from being the youngest and learning from peers to being the oldest and learning leadership skills, enjoying the pride of their hard work. Schedule a tour to see the campus, observe the complex beauty of a Montessori classroom, and chat with students/faculty. Come see how a Fulton School education helps children grow up well.

At The College School in Webster Groves, our Reggio Emilia-inspired Early Childhood program nurtures each child’s natural curiosity through a thoughtful balance of play, exploration, and meaningful project work. Rooted in the belief that children are capable, creative thinkers, our program invites students to investigate real-world ideas and express their understanding through the “hundred languages” of art, nature, and play. Days are filled with joyful learning experiences—indoors and out—as children build foundational skills in language, math, social-emotional growth, and problem-solving. Our approach blends child-led inquiry with intentional guidance, allowing each student to grow at their own pace while developing confidence and a love of learning. With ample time spent in our outdoor classrooms, gardens, and nearby parks, students connect deeply with the natural world and learn the value of stewardship from an early age. We offer both part-time and full-time options to meet your family’s needs, and tuition assistance is available to help make our program accessible. Come see our warm, vibrant community in action—contact our Admissions Office today to schedule a personal tour! LEARN MORE
