When our family moved to Utah in 2014, we were looking for the right school to send our children to. We really loved the mission of FMSL. The individual attention given to each child’s learning and development was important to us. Foothill Montessori of Salt Lake felt like home for our children and there was a nice connection with our values. We believe that this was a good fit for our daughters. One of our children had gone to a Montessori school when she was younger and our family was looking to continue fostering the education that she had received.
The Foothill Montessori of Salt Lake enrolls students aged 3 months through 6th grade offering a uniquely authentic Montessori curriculum. The Montessori method of teaching aims for the fullest possible development of the whole child, ultimately preparing each student for life’s many rich experiences. Montessori education is a flow experience; it builds on the continuous self construction of the child- daily, weekly, yearly.
