Faculty & Staff

Each member of our community of teachers and support staff has a deep, longstanding commitment to the child. 

Lead teachers are certified by the American Montessori Society or nationally accredited teacher training programs. All are members of the American Montessori Society and other national professional educational organizations. They regularly attend national and local education conferences, both individually and as a team.

Our assistant teachers and child care staff are a vibrant, integral part of the MCH community. Each is dedicated to the children, the classrooms, and the school. For consistency, our Before & After School Care is staffed by classroom assistants and other full-time staff.

The lead teachers and assistants come to Montessori Children’s House each day excited to help children become empowered, independent, creative, resilient human beings. We emphasize peace education and conflict resolution along with care for the world and all of its inhabitants. The dedication of the teaching staff is exemplary and inspiring.

The MCH core teaching staff is supported by a small, highly trained team of float staffers, office personnel and the school leadership team.
