At Sussex Montessori, your family belongs.
We are committed to creating a safe, nurturing environment where each child is seen, respected, and supported as a whole person. Guided by Montessori principles, we foster independence, encourage curiosity, and cultivate grace and courtesy in all that we do.
Our goal is for every child to thrive—not just as a learner, but as a kind, capable, and contributing member of our community. We’re honored to walk alongside your family on this meaningful journey of growth and discovery.
A Message to Our Community
We recognize that recent news about immigration enforcement may be creating stress and uncertainty for some of our families. These concerns can affect the emotional well-being of our children and the sense of safety within our community.
At Sussex Montessori School, we remain steadfast in our commitment to providing a safe, welcoming, and inclusive environment for every child and family. Each student deserves to feel secure, supported, and respected as they grow, learn, and thrive.
As always, we stand together as a school community—nurturing the whole child and protecting the right of every learner to belong, to be seen, and to be empowered. Click here to read more
Partnering in Your Child’s Path of Discovery
At Sussex Montessori, we believe that learning is a shared journey. As a parent or guardian, your presence and perspective are vital in helping us follow your child’s unique path.
By joining parent organizations, participating in family events, and engaging in classroom life, you help us uphold a core Montessori principle: we follow the child. Together, we share the responsibility of nurturing each child’s curiosity, independence, and love of learning.
Your partnership empowers your child to grow with confidence—both as a learner and as a contributing member of our community.
