Wildwood Montessori School is an independent Montessori school located in La Monte, Missouri, serving children from 18 months through 12 years of age. Rooted in authentic Montessori principles and inspired by a deep connection to nature, our mission is to cultivate capable, compassionate, and confident learners who are prepared to make meaningful contributions to their communities.
Our thoughtfully prepared environments include Toddler, Primary, and Elementary classrooms where children are guided through hands-on, individualized learning experiences that foster independence, curiosity, critical thinking, and a lifelong love of learning. We believe education extends beyond the classroom walls, making outdoor learning, environmental stewardship, practical life experiences, and community engagement integral parts of our curriculum.
At Wildwood, we are committed to nurturing the whole child—academically, socially, emotionally, and physically—while cultivating strong partnerships with families. As a growing Montessori community, we value continuous professional development, collaborative leadership, and innovation grounded in Montessori philosophy.
We are proud to be a member of the International Montessori Council and remain dedicated to providing an authentic, child-centered education that empowers each student to flourish and become a thoughtful steward of the world around them.
