At The Woods, we provide a foundation that cultivates a lifelong love of learning grounded in peace, respect, independence, and excellence.
“The first duty of an education is to stir up life, but leave it free to develop”
– Maria Montessori
“To aid life, leaving it free, however, that is the basic task of the educator.”
– Maria Montessori
“The greatest development is achieved during the first years of life, and therefore it is then that the greatest care should be taken.”
– Maria Montessori, The Absorbent Mind

Happy Birthday, Dr. Maria Montessori! 🎉
Today we’re celebrating the woman whose ideas continue to shape our classrooms and our community every day.
We see her vision in the little moments - the proud smile after mastering something new, the focus during meaningful work, the independence that grows a little more each day, and the kindness children show one another.
We’re so grateful to be carrying her work forward and to have the privilege of watching children grow, discover, and become more independent every day.
Happy Birthday, Dr. Maria Montessori! 💚
Happy First Day of School! 🎉📚
We loved welcoming our students back to The Woods today! There were so many smiles, and excitement filled the air as children reunited with friends, settled into their classrooms, and began exploring their prepared environments. It was wonderful to see them already engaged in meaningful work, learning, and discovery. 💚
We can’t wait to see all the growth, curiosity, and joy this new school year will bring. Welcome back, Woods families! ✨
