Our Mission:

Lifespan Montessori strives to embody Montessori ideology in the early education of our students. Our mission is to provide a loving environment wherein every child can feel comfortable, safe, and open to explore new horizons. Hands-on approaches are used to care for the environment through tending to live plants and animals, as well as recycling, composting, and resource conservation. Youth enrichment programs are centered around the arts and the celebration of various cultures. Above all, our mission is to help students learn to care about each other.
