RSVP for Virtual Discussion and Insights From an Experienced Traditional Educator
Why choose Montessori? As we navigate the ups and downs of raising children, particularly in these fraught times, it can be helpful to step away from the daily challenges and envision your child’s future.

- Better health and work performance and
- More positive social behavior and relationships

About the University of Virginia Study on Montessori Education Outcomes
“The study is one more data point in a growing body of research suggesting #Montessori pedagogy is better for humans than is the common model,” researchers tell Forbes magazine. “And, since it is over 100 years since people began implementing Montessori, it has been beta-tested — we know how to implement this pedagogy and are doing so all over the world. More people should know about it.”
