Round Rock Montessori School’s mission is to provide quality Montessori education in an environment which fosters a child’s love of learning and respect for self, others, community and the world. Our school is a harmonious educational experience for children, where they are taught high academic achievement, independence, brotherhood, and a responsibility to school, family, themselves, society and our earth.

Our teaching methods are based on the philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori, a physician, educator and humanitarian who devoted her life to the study and welfare of children. Round Rock’s teachers, students and their parents play an active role in our educational process. Our educational environment celebrates cultural, ethnic and economic diversity such that children from various backgrounds are taught to live to their greatest potential.

Round Rock’s Board of Directors, Administration, Teachers and Staff, Students and their families all invite you to explore this website and discover how we help our children grow.

At Round Rock Montessori School, our mission statement and beliefs are integral to the learning process. The following list details our beliefs as educators:

• The role of the teacher is to facilitate learning in a safe, secure, stimulating environment that promotes freedom of choice, encourages trial of new experiences and promotes learning.
• A successful educational experience requires participation of the child, parents, teachers and the community.
  Parental involvement is integral to a child’s academic, social and emotional success.
• Each teacher has a commitment to growth that is exemplified by an ongoing personal development both in education theory and practice.
• Round Rock Montessori School seeks to promote environmental stewardship through curriculum elements and through its building design.
