Founded in 1969, Rowntree Montessori Schools (RMS) has been “Nurturing Tomorrow’s Achievers” for over 50 years. Rowntree offers a balanced curriculum, combining more traditional skills such as public speaking and handwriting with more modern approaches within a Montessori-inspired environment. Rowntree’s innovative use of technology and its genuine commitment to 21st Century teaching and learning are focused on creating a place from which future leaders will emerge. Rowntree’s students are encouraged to address real-world problems, using a cross-curricular approach, in a manner that will set them on a path for success in their increasingly complex world. Whether global issues, such as plastic in the oceans, or more local ones, such as animals’ habitat loss due to urban development, Rowntree students understand that they can be active participants in solving their city’s, country’s and planet’s most difficult problems. By engaging its students with real-world and local issues, Rowntree is helping to prepare the next generation of tech-savvy, digitally literate, solution-focused citizens for the challenges that we will all be facing in the coming years and decades. In their innocence, Rowntree’s students may not yet truly appreciate the innovativeness of their school experience, but we will all benefit from their skills and knowledge in the not-so-distant future. RMS has four conveniently located campuses located throughout the city of Brampton, Ontario.
