Welcome to Our School
Welcome to Greatwood Montessori School in Sugar Land, TX. We offer infant, toddler and primary programs for students two to six years of age. We just opened our new STEAM Studio where children will have weekly hands-on experiences to further explore the subjects of science, technology, engineering, the arts and mathematics.
Our school boasts a very large outdoor environment for the children to run, play and explore. We also have bikes and a basketball court for the children to play and ride, as well as other recreational learning tools.
We have been serving the communities of Greatwood, Riverpark, Telfair and New Territory since 1999. If you are interested in learning more about a Montessori education, I encourage you to schedule a tour. I would love to show you everything our Greatwood Montessori School has to offer, including our new partial-week program!
Electives Offered
Elective programs allow Montessori students to learn by exploring creative outlets that will help them advance in the future—while giving your family more free time on evenings and weekends. We offer:
Soccer, Music, Literacy
Make. Do. Tinker. Think.
Our authentic Montessori experience is enhanced by a STEAM Studio.
Featuring hands-on learning stations for Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Math, the studio is available to Primary program students at least once a week.
- Science lab equipment will include items such as salt, vinegar, popsicle sticks, glue, clay, straws, etc., for children to perform simple experiments
- Technology learning experiences will be highlighted by tablets and educational apps
- Art studio activities will incorporate natural elements (such as leaves) and will feature various modes of art; for example, pendulum painting

I believe Montessori education helps develop the child’s brain and mind at an early age and allows children to develop independence. Montessori also encourages them to reach their true potential. I enjoy working with children because they are full of happiness and just to see them smile makes me feel happy. I am a proud mother of two successful daughters and a happy grandmother of five grandchildren.

I believe Montessori is very important for young children because it helps develop their young minds to become successful adults. I love watching how much they can accomplish from 18 months to the time they leave my class. My philosophy of teaching is that I believe each child is unique and needs a secure and caring environment to grow!
