Springmont School
Springmont offers an authentic Montessori experience, where individualized learning inspires students to become creative, independent thinkers. Founded in 1963, Springmont is the oldest Montessori school in the Southeast and serves children 18 months through 8th-grade. Hands-on, experiential learning happens in thoughtfully-prepared environments that include multi-aged classes, specially-designed materials and highly-experienced teachers who guide students’ curiosity towards meaningful discoveries. Classrooms are large, light-filled and aesthetically pleasing while the outdoor campus with its many natural areas, class gardens and farm animals afford rich outdoor science lessons. Opportunities to build skills through collaboration, inquiry and presentation help students develop socially, emotionally and academically. Springmont’s Middle School prepares students for success in Atlanta’s premier high schools as well as life beyond academics. Students run micro-economies and compete in regional academic competitions. Opportunities to hone time-management skills, experience active leadership roles, articulate complex ideas, and work both independently and in diverse groups allow students to become engaged learners.
