Supporting Every Child’s Unique Journey

At Sunrise International Montessori School, we believe that every child is a unique individual with limitless potential. In keeping with the Montessori philosophy, we honor and nurture each child’s natural development—including those with special needs.

Our inclusive environment is designed to support diverse learning styles, sensory profiles, and developmental needs. We work closely with families, specialists, and service providers to create individualized support strategies that help every child thrive socially, emotionally, and academically.

At Sunrise, we understand the complexities of navigating educational support for your child. Just as importantly, we understand the range of emotions and stress parents can feel throughout the process. Our staff have experience working closely with parents and the local school districts to ensure you feel supported at each step.


Our approach includes:

  • Small class sizes with individualized attention
  • Sensory-friendly classroom materials and spaces
  • Teachers trained to recognize and adapt to a range of developmental needs
  • Teachers and staff experienced in assisting families new to the area or country.
  • Assisting parents in assessments and meetings with local school districts
  • Information for parents on resources to specific to their child's needs
  • A supportive and understanding partnership and environment for parents
  • Recognition of the skills, super-powers and potential every child has within them
  • Emphasis on respect, patience, and empowerment for all children


We welcome the opportunity to meet with families and discuss how we can support your child’s success in our nurturing Montessori environment.
