Head of School Welcome
Welcome back!
​
I extend a warm and heartfelt welcome to our returning students and families, as well as those who are joining our Montessori community for the very first time. The commencement of a new school year is a moment that resonates with excitement, anticipation, and the boundless promise of fresh opportunities.
​
Our mission is to create an environment that not only nurtures young minds but also celebrates the uniqueness of each child's developmental journey. At Discovery Garden, we remain steadfast in our commitment to providing a secure, inclusive, and nurturing space for all students. Our goal is to inspire and guide every student toward reaching their fullest potential, guided by their individual interests, strengths, and curiosities.
​
Please mark your calendars for DGMS events, such as observation days, workshops, and community gatherings. We are eager to witness the growth, curiosity, and discoveries this year will undoubtedly bring.
​
Once again, welcome back to Discovery Garden Montessori School!
