Mission Statement

As a community dedicated to Montessori ideals, MSB supports the development of the whole child, guiding each toward their full potential.

Core Values

MSB’s core values are the inherent building blocks of our community and reflect our lasting commitment to Montessori education and principles. These key elements help define our identity and purpose, and reflect the joy we see in our students and staff.

ABAR Statement

We at MSB acknowledge the long-seeded issues of privilege, bias, and racism in our country, and commit to educating ourselves and our community through the lens of anti-bias education. Anti-bias education encompasses issues of religion, language, differing ability, gender, sexism, racism, classism, and sexual orientation. MSB recognizes that to be anti-bias is an ongoing commitment, and that true change takes self-reflection, diligence, and action.
