Mountain City Public Montessori
OUR MISSION Our mission is to provide equitable access to a high-quality, relevant Montessori education to meet the unique needs of all students and strengthen our community. OUR VISION We partner with families and the community to cultivate a supportive and inspiring environment where all can thrive. Using the Montessori method, we educate the whole child, integrating their physical, social-emotional, cultural, and academic needs and interests. Our multi-age classrooms encourage care, connection, and collaboration with peers. Uninterrupted periods of self-directed work foster each child’s love of learning, allow them to develop their concentration, and create a natural environment for building executive functioning skills. Students work with hands-on materials in carefully prepared environments to promote learning in a way that is tangible and intuitive. At Mountain City Public Montessori, we believe all students deserve access to a quality education that affirms each individual and enhances the collective by giving them an opportunity to practice living in and contributing to a more just society.
