Testimonials: What Faculty and Administrators Say about Daycroft
“A lot of choice and high expectations”
“Teaching at Daycroft is special to me because of the autonomy of the classroom. Montessori teachers help their students become self-directed learners and independent thinkers. There is a lot of choice in a Montessori classroom, but with that choice comes high expectations. The students learn how to discipline themselves to get all of their work done in a timely manner.”
“Our class gets ‘Friday Free Choice’ in the afternoon if all their work for the week is completed. Children soon learn the importance of a job well done, and doing it right the first time. One of our founding principles is to always ‘do your best.’ No one can ask more than that. A job well done is its own reward.”
Diane Seeger
Head Teacher, 1-2A
“Freedom to explore”
“Teaching at Daycroft is about allowing children the freedom to explore the world and build upon ideas with their own sophisticated thoughts.”
Lissa Main
Library and Technology Coordinator
“Great leaders and team players”
“Besides the academics, at Daycroft we teach character qualities such as social responsibility. It’s important that students learn to be both great leaders and team players. Kindness, honor, and respect for others should be internalized in every student.”
“A Montesorri education teaches children to look first at the big picture and to become a critical thinker. At Daycroft, our gift to our students is to develop a love of learning and become responsible citizens.”

Head Teacher, 1-2A
