The mission of Sterling Montessori is to create a diverse educational community, grounded in the Montessori philosophy and teaching practices, that fosters curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking in its students. We strive to empower each student to become life-long learners who respect themselves, others and their environment.
It is important for prospective parents to tour our programs prior to turning in a preschool or lottery application. The Montessori approach to education is different from the traditional approach. We want our parents to have an understanding of Montessori education and that our method of teaching aligns with your goals for your student. Here's an interesting Ted Talk on the value of a Montessori education.
We have immediate openings for 4th-8th grades! If interested, please complete a Post-Lottery Application. For any questions on enrollment for our Academy or Charter program, please reach out to enrollment@sterlingmontessori.org
