Our school formerly Glenridge Montessori was originally founded in 1981 in Erie PA and was simply called The Children’s House. In 2004 the school moved to its current location in Summit Township of Erie where it is now known as Montessori in the Woods.
In keeping with the traditions of the proven Montessori method Montessori in the Woods provides a structured challenging and nurturing environment where children are given the tools to succeed in life.

Our goal is to cultivate the childs own natural desire to learn. In a Montessori environment the children develop a positive self-image and a self-motivated approach to learning that will be beneficial for the rest of their lives. As children work in an environment that expects personal responsibility they become more self-disciplined and achieve higher self-esteem. Since 1907 Montessori has been ahead of the curve with enlightened concepts such as math manipulatives sensory experiences cooperative learning languages and cultures and care of the person and environment. Experiences in art music movement and science are also parts of the curriculum.
