Faculty & Staff

Our faculty and staff members represent a diverse group of individuals from around the United States.  We recruit nationally and have high standards for faculty and staff selection.  To achieve Montessori Certification, each teacher obtains an undergraduate degree followed by 2-6 years of additional higher degree training for each certification level.  As a school, we actively promote the ongoing development of our faculty and staff.
