Ronald Knox Montessori School: A 55-year tradition of excellence
Why choose a
Montessori School
for your child?
Research has shown
that the best predictor
of future success is
confidence along with
a positive sense of self.
Beginning your child’s
education at a Montessori
school during their most
formative, impressionable
years can set them firmly
on that path.
Fundamental to the
Montessori approach is
that children become independent
by developing
their sense of order, coordination,
and concentration.
As a result, they
develop positive character
qualities, self-discipline,
and the ability to “think
out of the box.”
Why choose Ronald Knox
Montessori School?
In dedicating ourselves
wholly to Maria Montessori’s
philosophy, we
adhere to the highest
standards of Montessori
education. Ronald Knox
Montessori School is
fully accredited, meeting
or exceeding standards
set forth by the American
Montessori Society
(AMS). We have over 55
years of educating and instilling
the love of learning
in children on the
North Shore — many of
our “graduates” are now
sending their own children
to Ronald Knox!
Ronald Knox Montessori
School offers children
a warm, welcoming
environment, where they
are encouraged to explore
a world of activities
in mixed age classrooms,
supervised by nurturing
teachers and their assistants.
Our teachers are
highly qualified, with credentials
from AMS certified
training centers. Our
beautiful classroom environments
are designed,
built, and maintained for
the children, following
Montessori philosophy.
The child, making use of
all that he finds around
him, shapes himself for the
future.
— Maria Montessori
The children in all of our
programs are guided by
their teachers as they make
discoveries and learn in a
natural, intuitive, handson
manner. Children develop
skills they will use
both inside and outside the
classroom, such as creative
problem solving, grace and
courtesy, respect for themselves,
others, and the world
around them. Ronald Knox
children are more than prepared
to enter elementary
schools upon “graduating.”
Our teachers respect all
children as unique individuals.
They understand that
children develop and learn
at their own pace. They
strive to instill a life-long
love of learning in all of the
children, setting them on a
path to reach their highest
potential.
Our strong, involved, and
supportive community of
parents, faculty and administrators
are dedicated to
ensuring that Ronald Knox
continues to maintain its
level of excellence.
Ronald Knox Montessori
School offers the following
programs:
Parent/Child (6-23
months of age), Toddler
(2-3 yrs of age), Primary
