From The Director of Admissions

On behalf of our entire community of staff, teachers, parents, and children I thank you for your interest in our school! Choosing the right educational environment for your child is an important decision and we're here to provide you with information to help you through that process.


My passion for Montessori began over twenty years ago when I started searching for preschools for my son. I knew instantly that this was the beginning of a new way of learning, and I went on to become a Montessori teacher in Infant and Early Childhood. I’m always excited to meet with parents to share the benefits of an authentic Montessori education and discuss whether our school would be the right fit for your child and family.


I look forward to meeting you!


Beth Huffman, Director of Admissions
