Child/ Staff Privacy

“The freedom that is given to the child is not liberation from parents and teachers; it is not freedom from the laws of Nature or of the state or of society, but the utmost freedom for self-development and self-realization compatible with service to society.”
– Dr. Maria Montessori, What You Should Know About Your Child
