Montessori Central School

Parent Information


A “Montessori parent” is any parent who respects the child as an individual. At Montessori Central School, parents retain an active interest in learning about the Montessori method and work to incorporate Montessori principles of child development at home. Parents participate in the education of their children by attending conferences, observations, curriculum nights, meetings, and fund-raising events.


Detailed information for parents is found in our Parent Handbook.

The Parent-School Partnership


Observing in the Classroom

We encourage parents to visit their child’s classroom during the school term. We also welcome students, teachers, and others interested in education to observe. Due to limited space, an appointment is necessary. There is usually an opportunity for discussion with the administrator at the end of the session.


Parent-Teacher Conferences

Montessori Central School encourages open communication between parents and staff members. In addition to two scheduled parent-teacher conference periods during the school year (see school calendar), staff are happy to schedule a conference at parents’ convenience whenever the need arises.


Parent Meetings

Montessori Central School holds periodic evening meetings/workshops for parents covering topics related to Montessori education and child development. Please check the school calendar for dates and topics.

Parent Reviews


"It’s important to showcase testimonials from past and current parents. In marketing, this is referred to as “social proof” and it is critical to engaging prospects and encouraging them to tour your school."
