Welcome to
MONTESSORI LAB SCHOOL AT GRAND CENTER

We are a thriving school community offering children ages 15 months to 12 years an authentic, urban, Montessori education.

Centered around the development of the whole child, the Montessori method instills personal responsibility, critical thinking, resilience, and respect for others, giving children a foundation for learning that will stay with them throughout their lifetime.

At Montessori Lab School, we seek to cultivate a broad community of culturally and economically diverse families. Because we are believers in the strength of community, we offer continuous parent education and outreach programs so that more children and families can experience the Montessori method.

The Lab School operates under the world-renowned Montessori Training Center of St. Louis, an internationally recognized affiliate of the Association Montessori Internatonale (AMI). Maria Montessori herself founded the organization to continue the legacy of her vision while also continually innovating to increase the impact of authentic Montessori education.

The best way to understand Montessori is to see it in action and we encourage prospective families and members of the community to observe in our classrooms; the children interacting with the materials and the hum of the busy learning environment is exceptional to see.
