Community

Jarrow Montessori is truly a special place. Whether you have been involved with the Jarrow community for years or you are joining us for the first time, we encourage you to take an active role in helping Jarrow to grow and thrive. Like most independent schools, Jarrow Montessori relies on the time, talents and financial contributions of all our community members. This support allows us to offer the Montessori experience for which we have been known for over 55 years, and supports our students on their journey to becoming compassionate people, independent thinkers, and life-long learners.

Whether you’re a parent, guardian, grandparent, alumni, teacher or administrator, there are many opportunities to get involved in our community.

They work both independently and in collaboration with one another toward meaningful academic and social pursuits.

Here at Jarrow, character is honed, confidence grows and generosity is extended toward self and others. Our school’s mission and practices are based on Dr. Montessori’s extraordinary vision of Education for Peace.
