Library

Our Library

The library is an integral part of the educational process at Providence Montessori School. It is a link to, and an extension of, the Montessori classroom curriculum.  Students have weekly library time during which grade appropriate lessons are given on how to locate, evaluate, and effectively use information.  Providence is fortunate to have an extensive library collection which reflects an appreciation for the written word.  Within our collection, there is representation of different cultures, ethnic backgrounds, and religious beliefs.

In addition to learning how to use library reference materials properly, students are also taught how to behave in a respectful manner that ensures our library remains a place where quiet, reflective thought can take place without interruption.  We are pleased to also have a Montessori reference section dedicated to parents and teachers.

Each spring, our library hosts a book fair where students can purchase books and other educational materials.
