Kim Greer – Head of School
The very first moment I experienced a Montessori classroom 19 years ago, I knew that this was going to be my life’s calling. The Montessori classroom is a perfect microcosm of what we wish life to be, with respect, concentration, purpose and peace permeating the learning environment. It is a flawless environment for the child’s development. A place that is safe and nurturing, allowing children to explore new things not focusing on whether they succeed the first time or the 100th time. The Montessori classroom in partnership with the home environment creates a space for the child to develop into the person they will become.
I started my journey as a classroom assistant in 1991, and completed my Montessori Teacher’s training course with the “Montessori Teacher’s Training Institute” in 1993. I have worked as a Montessori guide for 14 years; four of those years were served as a Teaching Administrator for the Primary program for a Montessori School in California. I have had the privilege of experiencing some wonderful Montessori programs all along the west coast from Washington State as far south as Texas. I look forward to continuing the traditions of diversity, peace, and nurturing of the whole child that Harmony Montessori has held as a cornerstone.
