Staff Development
Our school is built on successful staff development using Montessori and NAEYC enrichment sources. Our staff is encouraged to attend Montessori and NAEYC conferences, which feature workshops designed to fill the needs of teachers, administrators and staff. These conferences provide a great stimulus and opportunity for sharing. Teachers are also encouraged to participate in continuing education courses including Early Childhood Education, sign language workshops, and many other professional growth workshops and classes. A well-prepared, highly qualified teaching staff requires continuing development of professional skills. Mission Viejo Montessori School provides Teacher-in-Services to ensure a teaching staff of the highest caliber. In-Service activities include the introduction of new techniques, the refreshing of seasoned skills, and a time for planning and organizing.
