Encouraging Montessori Primary School in Paoli, PA
Enroll your child in our leading Montessori education program. At the International Montessori Schools at Paoli Inc, we offer a unique early education approach that emphasizes your child's development, from pre-primary to elementary. During each program, students are encouraged to follow their interests and passions, discover their strengths and talents, and learn from curiosity.
Our Montessori primary school in Paoli, PA, provides an environment that fosters creativity, independence, and critical thinking. As a school founded on the principles of the Montessori philosophy, we promote child-centered learning through hands-on experiences. We have designed a curriculum with children’s abilities and curiosities in mind. Regardless of age, students explore the materials inside and outside the classroom, learning math, language, and science while developing social and emotional skills.
Our Teachers
Teachers are critical in our Montessori primary education for guiding everyone individually in the classroom. Our classrooms are carefully designed with age-appropriate materials and activities that support early development. Using these materials, teachers encourage students to explore their interests and learn independently rather than providing traditional lectures. With individualized guidance and support, children develop problem-solving skills, self-awareness, and a sense of responsibility for their personal learning.

My son spent time in IMS Paoli for two years. He always wanted to go to the school even on weekends because there were nice teachers and lovely friends.I love to see kids playing in the playground and taking care of chickens. I’ll never forget this amazing experience.

IMS Paoli is a joy of a school. My daughter who was nervous to attend absolutely loves the school. They are so kind and in tune with the children. They have a large outdoor component with chickens and gardens. The inside is lovely and warm.

As a teacher, I was very concerned about finding the right childcare for my son. We toured IMS Paoli and immediately fell in love with the director and beautiful school. Our son loved the independence that a Montessori program provided and really thrived in the pre primary classroom. He had attended a traditional daycare previously and frequently cried throughout the day and was very unhappy when he had to go to school. He is now in the primary classroom and it is really amazing how independent, mature, and self motivated he has become. Our babysitter commented on his personality saying that he is more mature than a seven year old she babysits and I know it's due to the Montessori environment. Our 10 month old daughter goes to IMS Great Valley and Silvia is a baby whisperer. Our daughter did not leave my side for the first five months of her life but really bonded with Silvia. She is truly a gem. While I miss my children during the day, I have absolutely zero worries about them and know that they are happy and well cared for.
