Beginning Summer 2026, we are excited to introduce our new Infant Program, serving children ages 6 weeks to 18 months in the White House. Leading this program will be Mrs. Cherry Moss, who has spent the past year as the lead teacher in the Blue House. She brings not only classroom experience but also the wisdom and care of being a grandmother. Joining her will be Miss Jasmine Morman, Tania Nogueira, Alisa Lamb, Shae Gibson, and a part-time floater.
Beginning in fall 2026, Katie Cooper assumed the role of Lead Teacher for the Blue House program. She is joined by Sanaia Nelson, a two-year member of our staff, along with new team members Madelyn White, Emily Felipe, and Diana Salas. We are pleased to welcome this dedicated team and look forward to a successful year in the Blue House program.
Our Red House is led by Abby Craft, who has been an integral part of our Montessori program for four years. Joining her is our Practical Life teacher, CaTravia El Assali, who brings creativity and enthusiasm to the classroom. Karen Marroquin has been part of our school for over three years and is an invaluable member of the Red House team.
Abigail Mason joined our team this summer, bringing her own energy and talents to the classroom. Rosemary Lewis and Santos Jones help complete our day by supporting our afternoon program.
We are truly blessed with such an amazing and dedicated team in the Red House!
Our floaters are an incredible group of dedicated individuals who bring flexibility, experience, and nurturing care to all classrooms. Many are students at ASU and support our program while continuing their education.
The school provides nutritious, chef-prepared meals for children 18 months through Pre-K, made by school chef Sylvia Ousley. Enrichment includes Kindermusik for students and weekly Spanish instruction for Pre-K.
Our school is lead by an exceptional leadership team. Rhonda Turner, our Director, brings over 30 years of experience and dedication to Montessori education—every one of those years spent right here at our school. She is AMS Montessori certified and holds a degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education. Rhonda taught kindergarten at Montessori for 15 years before stepping into her role as director, where she continues to lead with knowledge, consistency, and heart.
Co-owners Fara and Jeremy Moore also lead the school, Fara works full-time with 23 years of classroom experience and degrees in Elementary Education, Special Education, and a Master's in Reading. Both bring deep passion and dedication to the school community.
More than their credentials, both Rhonda and Fara bring an incredible amount of love, passion, and joy to our Montessori community.
