If you recently joined us for our Virtual Parenting Talk, you likely heard us discuss our association with Montessori Plus. Montessori Plus was founded in 2022 by Mrs. Herrington to provide quality Montessori Early Childhood teacher education. While the work and life of Dr. Maria Montessori is the inspiration for our teaching academy. The connection to Montessori Plus provides our assistant teachers with a pathway to certification and creates a teaching network with many other Montessori programs. Such a network helps us all grow as educators!
So it is with great excitement we share that Montessori Plus has received full accreditation from the Montessori Accreditation Council for Teacher Education (MACTE) and affiliation with the American Montessori Society (AMS) for its early childhood course level. Montessori Plus was chosen for this distinction, demonstrating its commitment to excellence in teacher training and program quality and its dedication to meeting rigorous standards in Montessori education.
Accreditation with MACTE ensures that the EMTA teacher education programs adhere to recognized standards of excellence, while affiliation with AMS provides access to a network of Montessori educators and resources. These associations validate the commitment to high-quality Montessori education and also attract educators who value professional development and growth within a reputable institution.
