Keely Strohl

Keely brings over 27 years of experience as a Montessori Toddler teacher and holds an AMS Montessori 0–3 credential. She now serves as the Advancement Director, where she continues to share her deep commitment to Montessori education. Her role allows her to promote the mission of Dr. Montessori through admissions, enrollment, marketing, and community building both within the school and in the wider community. In addition to her work at MCH, Keely serves as a field consultant with the Montessori Education Institute of the Pacific Northwest (MEIPN) and spent six years teaching adult learners in their Montessori training program. She also holds a Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education.

Keely’s favorite part of working at MCH is building strong relationships with families and helping them discover the beauty of the Montessori approach. She also enjoys connecting with her colleagues and finding moments of joy and fun around campus.

Outside of work, Keely loves walking with her dog, spending time with her two daughters (both Montessori graduates), traveling near and far, and attending concerts and sporting events whenever she can. Soccer is a huge part of her family life, and cheering on games together is one of their favorite pastimes.
