Sunshine Montessori School is a nonprofit, parent-and-staff-operated school administered by an elected Board of Directors.
We are dedicated to helping children from the age of 18 months through the kindergarten year develop their own unique potential.
Sunshine's mission is to provide an outstanding learning environment that allows each child's own motivation and interest to be the starting point for learning.
Sunshine nurtures a love of learning, self-motivation, a mind capable of independent judgement, and a healthy respect for oneself, others, and the environment.
We believe each child's learning experience should be both fulfilling and enjoyable.
