Our Mission & Vision
“We must look to the children as a vehicle for bringing change to humanity. ”
- Maria Montessori
Founded in 1964 as the first Montessori school in Colorado, Jarrow Montessori is the region's premier independent school for progressive preschool through 6th-grade education. We provide an environment where rigorous educational best practices meet purposeful self-discovery, empowering students to lead and innovate in a complex world.
Our Mission - What We Do:
Jarrow Montessori School nurtures the development of the whole child through high-quality Montessori education. Our community supports each child’s discovery of self in the journey to becoming a confident lifelong learner and compassionate citizen.
Our Vision - Why We Do It:
Inspire curious learners who trust in their ability to innovate and create in our evolving world.
Our Values - Living Out Our Vision:
Curiosity — Our learners are active questioners who pursue ideas with intellectual courage, seek understanding across disciplines, and engage deeply with the world around them.
Authenticity — Our learners are grounded in self-awareness, bringing their own unique identities to our community and expressing their perspectives with confidence while remaining open to growth, reflection, and challenge.
Community — Our learners work to build a trusting, diverse, and inclusive community where all belong. They lead with empathy and share responsibility for each other, our school, and our local and global communities.
