Why Guidepost?
The Montessori approach to human development is based on the belief in the potential of the child, and on the belief that it is only the child who can realize this potential. To grow up well is to grow up to be increasingly independent, capable, confident, happy and secure. At Guidepost, we are the village that supports you in raising your child.
The Montessori Approach
The Montessori method of education offers a knowledge-rich environment, through a child-led model. Children learn joyfully, through working with carefully sequenced, hands-on materials. Your child’s enthusiastic exploration naturally leads to a solid foundation and advanced academics.
A Close-Knit Community
Guidepost families tend to be friendly and welcoming folks, eager to make connections and form strong bonds. We think the education of our students is stronger when we can serve as a hub for such relationships, and we do all we can to foster a strong community in our area, with plenty of fun events and opportunities to meet and mingle.
A Global Network to Support You
Guidepost Montessori offers access to high-quality Montessori education in schools, at-home, or from anywhere around the world. Move seamlessly through our network as the needs of your family change to ensure continuity and consistency in your child's education, wherever you are located.

The Guidepost Approach
Educating the whole child
Teachers choose their moments of instruction wisely, offering lessons and presentations at suitable junctures in each child's development
The Guidepost Approach
A teacher whose job is to guide, not lead
Our teachers follow each child's natural schedule, which encourages them to trust their own bodies
The Guidepost Approach
Respecting the young child's rhythm of life
Children are given the tools and uninterrupted time to work on activities and materials they value
The Guidepost Approach
More study, not less
Children are given the freedom to follow their academic interests, which reduces the need for external motivation
The Guidepost Approach
No need for rewards or punishments
The teacher connects the child with their environment, showing them how to use the learning materials and evaluate their own work
The Guidepost Approach
Independent learning by the child
With the freedom to move and choose their own work, children develop internal discipline and social awareness
The Guidepost Approach
Empowered by choice
Lessons are designed to appeal to each child's level of development and interests
