AWAY FROM REALIZING
OUR CAMPUS VISION!
A Campus Built for Community
Over the past several years, Sussex Montessori School has transformed a bold vision into a vibrant learning environment serving children and families across Sussex County.
With more than $14 million invested into building our permanent campus, we are now completing the final and most meaningful space — the SMS Community Center.
This space will serve as:
-
A gathering place for school-wide events
-
A performance and presentation space for students
-
A venue for parent education and community programs
-
A hub that strengthens connection across our school family
Montessori education nurtures independence, collaboration, and confidence. A dedicated gathering space allows students to share their learning, celebrate milestones, and grow as leaders within a supportive community. For families, it becomes a place to connect, learn, and build lasting relationships.
This final step ensures our campus supports not just education, but community.
This historic barn will be transformed into a fully accessible Community Center serving students and families.
Every Gift Counts
We are seeking to raise the final $600,000 to complete the renovation of our historic barn. Below are some ways to give:
How Your Gift Will Be Used
As a charter school, our operating costs are supported by state and district funding, but we must independently raise all money needed for capital investments. The total construction costs are $600,000, but thanks to a generous grant from the Welfare Foundation, we need to raise $450,000.
Completing this renovation allows us to transform a beautiful wood-paneled barn into a fully accessible multi-use Community Center that will serve students, families, and the broader community for generations.
No matter the size, your gift matters…
Just like the future of our children.
