Maria Montessori was an Italian physician and educator, a noted humanitarian and devout Catholic best known for the philosophy of education, which bears her name. Her educational method is in use today in public and private schools throughout the world. Maria Montessori was born in Chiaravalle, Italy, on August 31, 1870. She graduated from medical school in 1896 and went on to become one of the fi

rst female physicians in Italy. While working as a medical doctor her observations led her to analyze how children learn. She recognized that children are a product of their environment and strived to understand more. She returned to school in 1901 to study psychology and philosophy. Upon graduation, Maria Montessori began teaching Anthropology at the University of Rome, but her desire to work with children was so great that she gave up her university position and medical practice to work in San Lorenzo district of Rome with a group of 60 children of working parents. On January 6, 1907, Maria Montessori founded the first Casa Dei Bambini, or "Children's House" and began developing the Montessori Method of education. The Montessori method of education is based on Maria Montessori's scientific observations of the children at Casa Dei Bambini. Maria Montessori deduced that children teach themselves through tireless manipulation of materials and absorb information constantly. This motivated her lifelong pursuit of educational reform, teaching and educator training. For more information about enrollment and fees, contact our schools

Many private preschools focus on activity-based learning (ABL), which means teachers act as facilitators rather than instructors. As a result, the teacher’s goal is to help students become involved in fun learning tasks, stay engaged in the activity, and participate positively.

Private schools provide children with quality academics in a safe and orderly environment surrounded with a value system of strong morals and ethics, according to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES).

A great achievement for PPMA!

We started with this amazing school when Noam was 18 months. From potty trainning with Mrs JoJo to reading and writing with Mrs. Seema.

When Noam graduated on summer 2019, we decided to let him try the Acceleration test of Plano ISD snd move to First grade.

Noam passed the test and skipped Kindergarten.

We were affraid at first and thought maybe he is too young, but then we got a letter from PISD for Pace Program...then we knew we did the right choice.
