鈥婼edgefield Montessori School, formerly named Park Road Montessori School, is located in the Sedgefield/Dilworth area of Charlotte, North Carolina. During the summer of 2024, we moved our campus from the original Park Road Montessori campus built in 1948 to the Sedgefield Montessori campus built in 2002. The Montessori program in Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools be鈥嬧�媑an in 1992 and has many of the original teachers remaining with the school. Our program is a full magnet with no neighborhood component. Sedgefield Montessori is a PreKindergarten through Sixth Grade school.

The goal of Sedgefield Montessori is to provide an optimal learning environment that is based upon Montessori pedagogy that will guide, develop and nurture the individual child. Respect for the child is the foundation of Sedgefield Montessori’s philosophy. The staff of Sedgefield Montessori believes strongly that the needs of the child come first - children, not subjects are taught. The Montessori Method is based on careful observation of and respect for the natural development of the child and has been used to educate children in America and around the world for over 100 years.

Our staff also believes in the importance of instilling intrinsic motivation in our children so that they can begin to take on the responsibility of their learning. Within our nurturing environment, students can begin their quest to become active, life-long learners. Furthermore, there is also a focus on social and emotional growth that helps students become better citizens of the world.

From the first day of school, our students are given freedom along with responsibility. In the Primary grades (PreKindergarten & Kindergarten), students begin to develop lifelong habits to help them focus on, organize and find satisfaction in their work. In Lower Elementary (Grades 1 - 3) and Upper Elementary (Grades 4 - 6), those habits are further developed into a strong educational foundation because our students have learned how to work independently and collaboratively, how to think, and how to see tasks through to completion. Expectations for doing one's best, working hard, and serving the community are part of the school's everyday life.
