    welcome to garden montessori's home page

    The Garden Montessori School is a child-centered, parent-inclusive school that provides a stimulating environment for Directresses and staff to respond to children's interests using a variety of Montessori methods. At the Garden we respect children's differences and encourage them to make appropriate choices thereby becoming self-directed in their learning in order to develop as individuals and as members of their community.

    The Garden is staffed by certified Directresses, Aides and support staff.

    Parents are encouraged to play an active role in the school. Our school believes that education is a family concern. To foster consistency between the home and school, we offer parent education classes about Montessori education and philosophy.

    We invite you to learn more about the school from the pages of this website and by scheduling a visit.

    The Garden Montessori School accepts students, faculty and staff regardless of race, national origin or religious beliefs.
