Since 1967, S
pring Bilingual
ontessori Academy
SBM A)
has protected and encouraged children, and at the same time
challenged and stretched them to the limits of their intellect
and imaginations. Children arrive at SBM A as two year olds,
barely out of diapers, and leave after kindergarten at the
age of six: confident, assured and well-educated, possessing
qualities of mind and character which serve them well as they
continue to learn and achieve. Within the walls of our school
children become literate and numerate. They develop pride in
their own accomplishments and respect for the talents of their
classmates. This is, above all, where children learn how it feels
to do one’s best work, and to have the effort as well as the
product recognized and celebrated.
