2001 marked the beginning of our Montessori journey. Dreams became reality as we opened the doors of our first school with just a handful of children. The children’s wide-eyed excitement and anticipation of new discoveries mirrored our own emotions.The feelings of that day still continue in our three campuses, nearly 300 children and 50 faculty!
We’ve grown as a school and also as individuals. Montessori is an environment that integrates and allows one to develop all human qualities: the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. With each moment, day, and year we’ve gained a greater awareness of ourselves but most importantly have nurtured our children’s unique human qualities…qualities preparing them for life…for the future.
Today, we start a new chapter with the goal of connecting teachers, parents and the community together to nurture the individual spirit of our children. Please join us in embracing The Montessorian Minds Blog (www.montessorianminds.com). This resource will allow us to focus on the child — to provide resources and insights, and an enriched environment nourishing their development.
The study of the child… may have an infinitely wider influence, extending to all human questions. In the mind of the child we may find the key to progress…

Montessorian Minds is more than a collection of ideas, it’s a portal representing the interconnectedness of us all, through our unified journey with children…our hope for the future.
This blog is one more step in our commitment to our children, and to be the leading authority in our field of education. Please join us on this journey.
