About Us

Our Mission…

The staff at MFLC is dedicated to preparing an outstanding Montessori environment that fosters collaboration, cooperation, and peace, and provides experiences that promote curiosity, inquiry, and concentration– thus enabling each child to reach his/her highest potential academically, spiritually, and socially.
