Windsor Street Montessori School

A PREPARATION FOR LIFE.

Windsor Street Montessori promotes peace and humanity in the hopeful hearts of young learners.

Through a food-forward Montessori approach, every child receives a gentle invitation to find joy in eating together, no matter their tastes or backgrounds. 

Whether it's reimagining tomato soup as "pizza soup" to spark excitement or seeing food justice as representation in school lunches, we believe that when children can see themselves reflected in the food, meal time becomes a space of safety.

In these shared moments—whether breaking bread or making discoveries in the classroom—our students learn invaluable lessons about empathy, equity, and environmental stewardship, resulting in a community of connection.

We're committed to expanding children's hearts and minds, inspiring them to build a kinder, more equitable world.

At our school, every child is seen—not just for who they are, but for who they can become.

In our school, wholehearted engagement is encouraged. Children and staff bring their complete selves into every moment and interaction.

Children experience an environment of self-care, where the space and necessary resources are provided to nurture their well-being. High personal standards guide our team, yet we recognize the importance of flexibility, understanding that everyone's best can vary from day to day. We believe that personal growth involves both recognizing the spectrum of human experience and embracing the diverse ways people show up in the world. 

At the heart of Windsor Street Montessori lies a journey that began with a single, profound experience—a young child who had just arrived in a new country, sitting before a tray of colorless, processed food, feeling unseen, unheard, and alone. 

This moment of vulnerability for our Executive Director, Chef Gaby, ignited a passionate commitment within her to ensure that no child would ever feel the isolation that she felt again.

Chef Gaby's belief that "there is always a place for you at the table" reflects not only our inclusive culture but also our innovative educational approach.

Her culinary expertise and empathetic educational style not only teaches children about the world; but shows them how they can live in it, respect it, and contribute to it in meaningful ways.
