Our Goal/Mission

Maria Montessori

At Parkside Community School our goal is for each child to become an independent, self-reliant person with the skills necessary to achieve their own goals, the ability to make a positive contribution to society, and to have an awareness of the interrelated nature of all life. To achieve this goal, we base our educational approach on the developmental philosophy and educational methods of Dr. Maria Montessori.

Parkside Community School is a Federal 501(c)3 non-profit organization devoted to the promotion of children’s and parent’s education and community outreach. We fundraise every year and accept tax-deductible donations, especially oriented toward families who may need tuition assistance. This helps to ensure economic and cultural diversity in our programs.



Thank you for bringing together the aesthetic, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual in such a beautiful and sensitive and thoughtful way. It is a gift and an offering that is un-parallel, unique and amazing… we are so grateful to you. —The Chapins
