Sherwood Heights intends to give students a strong foundation for further study, granted through a traditional, content-based academic program. Expectations are clear and explicit, including a demonstrable facility with the core curriculum and the development of watertight study habits. For many families that culture—one in which social currency is gained through academics—is a primary draw. Extra-curricular programs augment the core areas of instruction. The ideal student is one who is academically inclined, operating at the top of their peer group, and looking for an environment that prizes all of that.

"Sherwood Heights School is a leading private school in Mississauga, offering a comprehensive K–12 programme. Motivated students thrive in a structured and supportive environment where small class sizes allow experienced teachers to provide individualized attention that builds strong academic foundations and fosters confidence, knowledge, and excellence. In the elementary years, students develop essential skills in literacy, mathematics, and critical thinking through a rigorous, mastery-based approach that emphasizes problem-solving and clear communication. Learning is supported by both targeted academic support and enrichment, alongside French, science and technology, and integrated computer and business studies. A variety of clubs, events, and competitions further extend learning beyond the classroom. As students progress through middle and high school, they benefit from specialized academic pathways, leadership development, and diverse co-curricular opportunities. With a proven record of admission to competitive university programmes, Sherwood Heights provides a clear pathway to future success."
"At Manor Montessori, programs are thoughtfully designed to build on each other, creating a strong foundation for success at every stage. With long-tenured, experienced staff across two North Toronto campuses, we offer a connected Montessori experience grounded in authentic AMI principles and materials. A focus on early reading, writing, math, low ratios, and an outstanding French program. Manor is an authentic educational environment for all our students ages 18m–Gr. 4—where children reach their full potential."
"At Sherwood Heights, we combine academic rigour with personal attention, balancing traditional instruction with purposeful innovation. We emphasize mastery of core subjects through clear expectations and consistent daily practice, while integrating technology across the curriculum to build confidence and digital fluency. Our Careers-in-Focus and enrichment initiatives connect classroom learning to real-world applications, inspiring students to see purpose in their studies. Families consistently note that our blend of structure, enrichment, and warmth is what truly sets Sherwood Heights apart."
"At Manor Montessori, we educate the whole child. While strong academics are a priority, we place equal emphasis on developing resilience, independence, confidence, and emotional well-being. Through authentic Montessori materials, a carefully prepared environment, and individualized guidance, students learn by doing, exploring, and progressing at their own pace. Teachers know each child well and provide the right balance of challenge and support. Instead of relying on external rewards or pressure, children develop intrinsic motivation, problem-solving skills, self-discipline, and a genuine love of learning. This approach helps reduce anxiety, builds confidence through mastery, and encourages students to take responsibility for their learning and persevere through challenges.
The result is that Manor graduates are academically strong, confident, adaptable, and resilient—ready for wherever they go next, whether that is a private school, French Immersion program, or their community school."
"At Sherwood Heights, our commitment to a strong academic foundation means we prioritize depth over breadth, focusing on the essentials—language, mathematics, science, and critical thinking—rather than following fleeting educational trends. This deliberate approach ensures that students build lasting knowledge and disciplined study habits. While our structured and rigorous environment may not suit families seeking a fully self-paced or alternative style of learning, our students thrive when they embrace high expectations, consistency, and personal accountability."
"At Manor Montessori, our commitment to authentic Montessori education and whole-child development requires intentional tradeoffs.
We prioritize individualized, self-paced learning over standardized, whole-class pacing. Students progress when they are developmentally ready, which means learning paths differ but mastery is deeper and more secure.
We also prioritize hands-on Montessori materials over worksheets, testing, and heavy use of digital programs. This builds stronger conceptual understanding and long-term retention, even though it may look less traditional.
In the early years, we limit the role of technology in favour of real-world, sensory, and experiential learning, supporting focus, independence, and communication.
Finally, we balance academics with emotional development and independence. We believe this leads to more resilient, confident, and capable learners in the long term."
"Founded in 1989, Sherwood Heights began as a small, independent elementary school and has since grown into a thriving institution with two campuses serving students from Preschool to Grade 12. Over more than three decades, we have expanded our facilities, introduced new academic streams, and enriched our extracurricular programmes to support well-rounded student growth. Our high school facility features modern innovation labs, state-of-the-art science and art studios, and collaborative learning spaces that reflect our ongoing commitment to providing a forward-looking, dynamic education for every student."
"Manor Montessori’s identity is rooted in grassroots beginnings and steady, intentional growth within the community. The school began in a local church space, where Dana Stewart and Janet Miklas built a program grounded in authentic Montessori principles, educating the whole child and a clear academic focus supporting every child’s success.
As demand grew, a key milestone was the purchase of the South DeSavery location in 2003, allowing the school to better serve an expanding community while maintaining its hands-on, child-centred approach. Continued growth led to the 2015 purchase of the North Mt. Pleasant property.
Throughout this evolution, Manor Montessori has remained committed to educating the whole child through individualized, experiential learning and strong academic foundations. From its grassroots beginnings to today, the school has grown thoughtfully, prioritizing educational integrity and authentic Montessori principles."
"Students who thrive at Sherwood Heights are motivated learners who embrace challenge and structure. They approach their studies with curiosity, responsibility, and a genuine desire to achieve their personal best. Within our supportive and disciplined environment, they learn that effort, respect, and achievement go hand in hand. At Sherwood Heights, students value a culture where academic excellence is celebrated alongside creativity, leadership, and good citizenship—preparing them to succeed with confidence both in school and beyond."
"Manor Montessori is welcoming to all students. The strongest indicator of fit is alignment of values and expectations with our families.
Families who thrive in our community value a whole-child approach to education. They understand that strong academics develop alongside independence, resilience, confidence, and emotional well-being. They appreciate that Montessori is a journey—through hands-on learning, repetition, and engagement.
These families trust individualized learning and are comfortable with children progressing at different rates. They value an environment where children are guided to think for themselves, take responsibility, and develop independence in age-appropriate ways.
At Manor Montessori, we are not only teaching academic skills—we help children learn how to learn. Families who align with this philosophy recognize the long-term benefits of raising confident, self-directed learners who are happy, resilient, and ready to succeed in whatever path they pursue."
"Sherwood Heights offers a structured and academically focused environment that may not align with families seeking a highly flexible or alternative approach to education. Our programme is designed for students who respond well to clear expectations and steady academic challenge. While we provide individual attention and support, the pace may feel demanding for those who require extensive accommodations. Our priority is always each child’s success and well-being, and we work closely with families to ensure that Sherwood Heights is the right environment for their child to truly flourish."
"Manor Montessori may not be the best fit for families seeking a highly structured, traditional teacher-directed program with uniform pacing, frequent testing, and/or early academic pressure. Our approach is individualized, so children progress at their own pace rather than as a group.
We do not rely on worksheets, test-heavy learning, or a highly technology-driven classroom, which may differ from some families’ expectations. We prioritize hands-on learning, exploration, and mastery through experience. We allow students to make mistakes and learn from them, and we guide rather than lecture or instruct directly.
Montessori encourages independence, choice, and self-regulation, which requires comfort with children taking increasing responsibility for their learning and behaviour. Our school also supports children developing at different rates, which can be challenging for families who prefer standardized timelines, as we focus on individual growth over uniform progression."
"Families choose Sherwood Heights for its rigorous academics, individualized attention, and welcoming school environment that fosters meaningful connections among students and teachers. They value our proven results—graduates who consistently earn admission to competitive university programmes—and the personal care that defines everyday life at our school. With a strong reputation for academic excellence, dedicated teaching, and small class sizes, Sherwood Heights continues to attract families who seek a nurturing and achievement-oriented education for their children."
"Families choose Manor Montessori for our authentic Montessori principles, strong academics, and whole-child approach. They value an environment that balances academic excellence with independence, confidence, and emotional development.
Our experienced, long-tenured staff and strong leadership are also key reasons families trust us. Together, they ensure consistent, high-quality instruction grounded in deep understanding of child development and Montessori philosophy.
Families are also influenced by the results they see in current students and alumni—children who are confident, capable, and well prepared for a range of future pathways. They leave with strong academic foundations as well as the ability to think independently and adapt.
Manor is not an ordinary private school. It builds a foundation for learning for life, preparing students to thrive wherever they go next."
"Sherwood Heights is widely recognized within the community as one of Mississauga’s leading private schools, known for combining high academic standards with a welcoming and supportive atmosphere. Our reputation is built on exceptional student achievement, the professionalism and dedication of our staff, and the strong character of our students, who embody the school’s core values of integrity, effort, and kindness in all that they do."
"Manor Montessori is widely recognized as an authentic Montessori school that combines strong academics with a genuine focus on the whole child. In the public eye, the school is known for providing a calm, nurturing, and purposeful learning environment where children develop independence, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning.
When people think of Manor Montessori, they often associate the school with experienced and dedicated educators, small class sizes, individualized attention, strong student outcomes, and a warm, close-knit community. Families value the school's commitment to authentic Montessori principles, its emphasis on character development and leadership, and the visible growth they see in their children academically, socially, and emotionally."
"Families are often pleasantly surprised by the warmth and personal connection that define life at Sherwood Heights. Behind every academic success is a dedicated teacher who notices the small details, offering encouragement, guidance, and mentorship along the way. This genuine focus on relationships—built on care, respect, and support—is one of the school’s greatest strengths, shaping an environment where students feel seen, valued, and inspired to do their best."
"One aspect of Manor Montessori that is often underappreciated is the depth of learning opportunities beyond the Montessori classroom. While families recognize our nurturing environment and strong academics, they may not fully appreciate the strength of our French program, the richness of our Elementary program, and the variety of clubs and enrichment opportunities available to students.
Our French program helps students build confidence and communication skills from an early age. The Elementary program offers challenging academics, leadership opportunities, collaborative projects, and hands-on learning that foster independence and critical thinking. Clubs, athletics, arts, and enrichment activities further support confidence, creativity, friendships, and personal growth, creating a truly well-rounded educational experience."
"Many new families are pleasantly surprised by the advanced level of study at Sherwood Heights, even in the early grades, and by how quickly students rise to meet those challenges with confidence. They also appreciate the wide range of opportunities that extend beyond the classroom, including clubs, robotics, music, athletics, and leadership activities, all of which help students develop a balanced set of skills and discover their individual strengths and interests."
"Families are often surprised by the depth of care, commitment, and individualized support their children receive at Manor Montessori. While they may expect strong academics and authentic Montessori education, they quickly discover how deeply our educators know each child and how invested we are in helping every student succeed. We take responsibility for understanding how each child learns and finding ways to support them so they can learn, grow, and thrive alongside their peers.
Many families are also surprised by the power of the Montessori three-year cycle. What can sometimes look like small, incremental steps in the early years is actually part of a carefully designed learning journey. Whether learning to read, write, solve complex math concepts, or build independence, each skill builds upon the last. By the end of the cycle, families often see remarkable growth and recognize how those foundational experiences led to significant, lasting achievement."
"In recent years, Sherwood Heights has enhanced every aspect of the student experience. Our high school facilities now feature modern innovation and science labs, dedicated art and music studios, and a bright, open atrium that inspires collaboration and creativity. We have modernized our technology infrastructure to ensure students learn in a secure and connected environment, while expanding our curriculum to include leadership development, French at all levels, and integrated computer and business studies. In addition, we continue to grow our extracurricular offerings, helping students discover their passions, build teamwork skills, and develop strong character."
"Over the past few years, Manor Montessori has continued to evolve thoughtfully to meet the needs of our students and families while staying true to our Montessori values. Two years ago, we celebrated our 30th anniversary with school community events and a refreshed rebranding that honoured our history and reflects our continued growth.
We are also enhancing our learning environments and student experience. A current key project is the development of a new gym space in the basement at our DeSavery location, further supporting movement, physical education, and whole-child development.
Academically, we are continually refining and strengthening our programs to ensure they remain responsive and relevant."
"Looking ahead, Sherwood Heights will continue to expand its facilities and programmes to meet the evolving needs of students. We plan to introduce advanced academic pathways, strengthen partnerships with universities and community organizations, and integrate new technologies that promote creative, critical, and collaborative learning. As we grow, our mission remains the same—to prepare students for success in university and beyond, guided by the enduring values of confidence, knowledge, and excellence that define the Sherwood Heights experience."
"Over the next five years, Manor Montessori will continue to deepen its identity as a true Montessori environment while evolving to meet the needs of modern families. Our commitment to authentic Montessori practice will remain central, with a focus on strong academics, independence, and whole-child development across all programs.
We also plan to deepen engagement with our parent community through parenting talks, workshops, and/or events that help families better support their growing children.
We will continue to refine our programs and environments, strengthening our impact while staying true to who we are."
I am forever bursting with gratification over what our students and faculty are able to achieve. The multitude of accomplishments are varied and far-reaching, and make our school environment exciting, rewarding, engaging, and satisfying. We are relentlessly working towards one theme, and that is ‘Making It Happen’. Students ‘make it happen’ as they are fully engaged in a wonderful array of exhilarating events, clubs, competitions, tournaments, festivals, and fairs. Guided by their teachers, students are fully immersed in their pursuit to do their best and learn from their experiences. The children participate in a wide array of stimulating activities which include the Science Fairs, Math Competitions, Public Speaking Competitions, Music Festivals, Spelling Bees, Shows, Sports Tournaments, and much more. Also, the clubs are a big hit with the students and serve to broaden their horizons. From the Leadership Club to the Chess Champions Club, students stir in the hallways with anticipation and excitement. The activities are many and students from every section of the school participate in large numbers and with tremendous success. It is truly amazing. Thank you to our faculty who are an essential element in the ‘making it happen’ theme. Our teachers provide wise guidance as they nurture, support, and motivate our students. They have made a name for themselves as very special committed individuals with great qualities and stamina! As time races ahead, year after year, “Together, We Make It Happen!”

Traditional curricula tend to be very content-based and rooted in the core disciplines. It is a structured approach that involves the teacher delivering a unified curriculum through direct instruction. Students usually learn by observing and listening to their teacher, studying facts and concepts in textbooks, and completing both tests and written assignments - which challenge students to not only demonstrate their mastery of content but their ability to analyze and deconstruct it critically. Class discussions are also used to create critical dialogue around the content of the curriculum.
Particularly popular in the younger grades (preschool to elementary), but sometimes available all the way up to high school, Montessori schools offer an alternative vision to the standard lesson format of most classrooms. Instead of listening to whole-class lessons, Montessori classrooms allow students to choose which "tasks" or activities interest them. These tasks centre around special Montessori puzzles - their essential feature being they contain a right answer and allow for selfcorrection. A strong emphasis is therefore placed on lessons being concrete and rooted in practical experience, along with students developing a sense of self-sufficiency, confidence and curiosity.

Sherwood Heights follows an enriched and well-rounded curriculum for students from Kindergarten to Grade 12. The comprehensive curriculum emphasizes the basic subjects of language arts, mathematics, science, social studies, French, and computers; and addresses the importance of music, the arts, and physical fitness.
Manor Montessori offers an authentic Montessori curriculum rooted in hands-on, child-led learning within a carefully prepared environment. The program follows traditional Montessori principles while maintaining a strong academic focus across language, mathematics, science, and cultural studies. Students are supported in building deep understanding through exploration, repetition, and guided discovery. In addition to academics, Manor Montessori emphasizes the development of the whole child, including independence, confidence, social-emotional growth, and executive functioning skills that support lifelong learning. The school is not faith-based and provides an inclusive, secular environment that welcomes families from all backgrounds. A key feature of the program is its strong French curriculum, which offers consistent language exposure and structured instruction alongside English literacy. This bilingual approach enhances communication skills and cognitive development while complementing the Montessori academic framework. Together, these elements create a balanced program that is both rigorous and nurturing, preparing students academically and personally for future success.

Phonics-intensive
Systematic-phonics programs teach young children to read by helping them to recognize and sound out the letters and syllables of words. Students are then led to blend these sounds together to sound out and recognize the whole word. While other reading programs might touch on phonetics (either incidentally or on a “when needed” basis), systematic phonics teaches phonics in a specific sequence, and uses extensive repetition and direct instruction to help readers associate specific letter patterns with their associated sounds.

The kindergarten programme is academic based, well balanced, comprehensive and instills a love of learning.
Manor Montessori takes a phonetic, multi-sensory Montessori approach to early reading beginning at 2.5 years of age. Children first build strong phonemic awareness and oral language skills, with an emphasis on “writing before reading” using Sandpaper Letters and the Moveable Alphabet to form words and express ideas. Daily language work guides students from sound recognition to word building, decoding, and early comprehension. Our structured reading series provides carefully sequenced, decodable texts aligned with phonics mastery, supporting steady and confident progression. Reading develops naturally through hands-on materials, storytelling, and individualized instruction, allowing children to move at their own pace while building accuracy and understanding. By the end of Casa, our students are reading with confidence and comprehension, having progressed from early sound work to fluent decoding through consistent practice and mastery-based learning. This approach ensures reading is meaningful, engaging, and rooted in deep understanding rather than memorization.

In traditional literature programs students focus on decoding the mechanics of texts: plot, characterization, and themes. These texts tend to include a balance of contemporary and “classic” literature. When studying a past work, students investigate its historical context -- but only insofar as this adds understanding to the work itself. Past works are therefore studied “on their own terms”, and not merely as historical artifacts to be deconstructed: traditional literature programs are firmly rooted in the humanities, and carry the belief that great literature can reveal fundamental and universal truths about the human condition. These programs emphasize class discussions and critical essay writing, and aim to develop in students critical thinking, communication skills, and a cultivated taste and ethos.

A major effort is made to integrate the development of digital literacy throughout the curriculum and in everything students do. Digital literacy is understood to be a fundamental skill in the 21st century: it therefore follows, the idea goes, that teachers should find ways to connect every lesson back to technology. Effort is made to ensure the use of technology is meaningful and advances students’ skills beyond what they would otherwise be from using computers outside the classroom.

Academic-based preschools and Kindergartens are the most structured of the different types, and have a strong emphasis on math and reading readiness skills. These programs aim to expose children to what early-elementary school is like. While time is still allotted to free play, much of the day is built around explicit lessons guided by the teacher. Classrooms often resemble play-based ones (with different stations set up around the room), but at an Academic program the teacher leads students through the stations directly, and ties these activities to a whole-class lesson or theme.
Montessori programs aimed at preschool and Kindergarten- aged children allow young learners to choose which “tasks” or activities interest them. These tasks centre around special Montessori puzzles -- the essential features of these puzzles being they contain a “right answer” and allow for self-correction. A strong emphasis is therefore placed on learning being concrete and rooted in practical experience, along with children developing a sense of self-sufficiency and confidence. Specially trained teachers act as guides, introducing children to progressively more difficult materials when appropriate. A Montessori classroom is typically very calm and orderly, with children working alone or, sometimes, in small groups.
If you want to learn more about Montessori education, check out our comprehensive guide. You can also check out our guide to Montessori preschools, elementary schools, middle schools, and high schools.
The kindergarten programme is academic based, well balanced, comprehensive and instills a love of learning. Students are introduced to the fundamentals of reading, writing, mathematics, social science and French. Students will also expand their language skills through conversation, word activities, stories, audio and visual material, and computer software. Gross and fine motor skills and co-ordination are developed through physical and educational activities and the use of paints, crayons, clay, sand and water. Creative expression is encouraged through arts & crafts, music, and drama.
Manor Montessori offers a Montessori Casa program in place of kindergarten, beginning at 2.5 years of age. Rooted in authentic Montessori philosophy, children learn through hands-on exploration, purposeful work, and individualized pacing in a prepared environment. Students build early literacy, numeracy, practical life, and sensorial skills using specialized Montessori materials that foster independence, concentration, and confidence. Mixed-age classrooms encourage peer learning and leadership. Our program provides a strong academic foundation while supporting the whole child socially, emotionally, and cognitively. A key feature is early and consistent French exposure, supporting language development and cognitive flexibility. This blend of authentic Montessori practice and enriched language programming creates a calm, structured, and engaging start to a child’s education.

A school with a “rigorous” academic culture places a high value on academic performance, and expects their students to do the same. This does not mean the school is uncaring, unsupportive, or non-responsive -- far from it. A school can have a rigorous academic culture and still provide excellent individual support. It does mean, however, the school places a particular emphasis on performance -- seeking the best students and challenging them to the fullest extent -- relative to a normal baseline. High expectations and standards – and a challenging yet rewarding curriculum – are the common themes here. Keep in mind this classification is more relevant for the older grades: few Kindergarten classrooms, for example, would be called “rigorous”.
