Alexander Montessori School was founded in 1963 by Jim McGhee, Sr. and Beverley A. McGhee, a Living Legacy in Montessori education. Our school is one of the only fully-accredited American Montessori Society School in Miami and one of only 10 throughout Florida.
Alexander Montessori offers full-day and half-day educational programs uniquely designed to foster a love of learning for children ages 18 months to 12 years old. The child-centered Montessori philosophy provides a learning environment for Toddlers, Preschoolers, and Elementary students unlike other Miami private schools and traditional public education.
At Alexander Montessori, classrooms and curricula are tailored to a child’s learning and growth. Rather than imparting knowledge, the primary purpose of the Montessori Method is developing children intellectually and socially to be independent thinkers and self-directed leaders. Teachers follow the child’s lead, allowing learning to take its own path and pace, which often outpaces traditional education. Our mission is to help children learn to help themselves so they may help others. Graduates of Alexander Montessori consistently go on to gain acceptance to the most respected college preparatory schools and rigorous MDCPS programs.
