(Newswire.net — May 29, 2014) Irvine, CA — LePort Schools, a group of OC Montessori schools, is proud to welcome their 1,000th student.
Three-year old Hugh Kim of Irvine joined the Orchard Hills campus on April 21st. Now that he’s
been at school for a month, he is very happy to be here: “I love coming to school!” When asked why he loves coming to school, he replied, “I like playing with my friend Brandon.”
Hugh’s parents, Mr. Ildoo Kim and Mrs. Vray Shin, are very pleased with their decision to join the LePort community. “My husband and I were very happy to send my son, Hugh, to LePort, where we can trust the curriculum and the staff members,” said Mrs. Shin. “We believed in the LePort philosophy and we just had no doubt about the quality of education that my son would get. I am grateful for all the support and love for Hugh, and am happy he got to be the 1,000th student!”
LePort Schools was founded in 2000, and has since grown to nine campuses, with Montessori
schools in OC, LA and San Diego Counties. “Our goal is to bring authentic, high-quality Montessori education to ever more children,” explains Heike Larson, Vice President of Outreach. “Since Montessori isn’t trademarked, there are a wide variety of programs for parents to choose from. LePort parents appreciate that we hire Montessori teachers trained by the Association Montessori Internationale (the “gold standard” in Montessori training), invest in beautiful facilities and equip our schools with a full range of Montessori materials, so all of our teachers can provide a nurturing, quality Montessori experience to every child in our care. This passion for Montessori, and our professional, caring approach to interacting with children, parents and staff are a key driver of our success.”
LePort Schools provides authentic Montessori education for infants through 3th grade and a
unique Knowledge for Life curriculum for 4th – 8th grade students. LePort’s mission is to enable children to acquire the essential knowledge, thinking skills, and strength of character necessary to flourish as happy children today and successful adults tomorrow.
