It began with a belief in the child.
Discovery House Montessori School was founded with a commitment to providing children with an education that respects their individuality, nurtures their potential and prepares them for life.
Since our beginning, we have continued to grow while remaining grounded in the principles that shaped our foundation: respect for the child, meaningful learning, independence, faith and service.
Today, Discovery House is a community of children, families and educators committed to developing capable, compassionate and purposeful human beings.
