The child exists in a system that has the family – in whatever form – as its base. It is Arka Montessori Academy’s mission to support that family. In this section, you can see articles printed from our weekly editorials , the current editorial, a series of topics that you might not have thought to ask (unconventional wisdom), like why we don’t have televisions in our school and how we approach sex education, a list of recommended reading, and outside links for some great general parenting topics, including Montessori sites.
