Welcome to Our School
Welcome to West Glades Montessori School in Boca Raton, FL. My name is Wendy and I am the director. Our school offers Montessori-certified teachers and a true Montessori experience following Dr. Maria Montessori's method and philosophy. All of our lead teachers have an AMI or AMS Montessori certificate.
We have been open for over 32 years and not only provide an authentic Montessori curriculum, but the best child care/daycare in the community. I have been here at West Glades Montessori since day one. We encourage family participation and invite you to observe your child during class.
In addition to our Montessori curriculum, we also offer an after-school program that includes Amazing Athletes, Cooking, and Art and Spanish. Our school provides a high-quality education that gives your child a true Montessori experience!
We're pleased to offer our families access to Montessori Compass. This online resource enables parents to receive updates about their child's school experiences and communicate with their teacher.
We invite you to schedule a visit so you can see all we have to offer your family.
