Hear what parents have to say about Guidepost Montessori

Changing the world, one student at a time

We are a school where children find the joy in learning — and thus make it possible for them to continue learning for the rest of their lives.

To think mathematically.
To solve problems.
To create things.
To encounter great literature that inspires their character development.
To build themselves as capable, efficacious beings.
To place themselves in history and in society.
To spark meaningful friendships and deep personal values that last a lifetime.

Our goal at Guidepost Montessori is to serve each individual child, to help them realize their limitless potential, and the opportunities they will have to create real and lasting change throughout their lifetime.

Hear from our Guidepost Families

As a parent, I'm so happy my daughter has a school she loves to go to each day with Guidepost Montessori. Her teacher is caring and well-trained and focuses on not just basic curriculum but really helps my daughter learn beyond the limits normally set at a traditional school. The staff is also warm and welcoming. One of the best schools around!!

"The change we have seen in her is incredible"

My daughter started school here at the beginning of this school year and the change we have seen in her is incredible. We put her in Guidepost, and she is a different person. She comes home every day excited to tell me the new things she learned and has become a confident and well-adjusted 8 year old. The teachers and staff make you feel like family, which really comes through in their teaching. I highly recommend Guidepost.

"The best decision we have made"

Enrolling our son at Guidepost has been THE BEST decision we have made. We love the administrators, his teacher, and our son feels comfortable at Guidepost because everyone is so welcoming, patient, helpful and kind. Our family could not be happier with our experience at Guidepost and how much our son continues to learn each and every day!

Carefully prepared environment

At the heart of our school is our belief that children thrive when given freedom and responsibility in environments prepared for them. Guidepost Montessori classrooms are light, airy, calming, aesthetically beautiful spaces. Each material is carefully chosen and carefully displayed — to inspire and entice your child to explore.

Year-round programming

We think the education of our students is stronger when we can serve the whole family, which is why we are committed to very few closures throughout the school year, and offer extended day options for families.
