How they teach

Montessori

“The practical application of the Montessori method is based on human tendencies – which Dr. Montessori studies in detail – tendencies to explore, move, share with a group, to be independent and make decisions, create order, develop self-control, abstract ideas from experiences, use the creative imagination, work hard, repeat, concentrate, and perfect one's efforts and creations.”In their words, July 2026.ashfordmontessori.com

One of 47 Austin-area providers that describe a Montessori approach, out of 226 that describe any approach at all.

Shortlist doesn’t have these yet: cost, hours and late pickup, ratios and staff, a typical day, sick and biting policies.
