About Us

Harmony Montessori School has been providing a nurturing and enriching educational experience for children since 1994. Located in SE Portland, we serve the Portland area, Gresham and parts of Southern Washington. Our school currently has upwards of 115 children. We serve toddler and preschool aged children from 15 months through Kindergarten.

We are committed to acceptance of all people from all walks of life. At Harmony Montessori we support inclusion in the classroom, diversity of children, a respect for different cultures and non-traditional family make-ups. Our goal is to provide all children with a rich education experience that will instill a lifelong love of learning.

Harmony partners with local and state-based organizations to assist families with tuition.  We also offer work trade opportunities and we accept DHS (Department of Human Services) assistance. Harmony Montessori is a qualified Preschool Promise School and is a Preschool For All Pilot site.  To find out more about these programs, qualifications and how to apply please see our financial aid page.

We have a dedicated and caring staff that each bring their own teaching experience, backgrounds and Montessori credentials to our school.  This makes for a collaborative and open ended work environment for our teachers and a more enriching learning experience for the children. All of our lead guides hold a Montessori certification from an accredited training program. Each staff member maintains 24 hours annually of continuing education credits.  You can read more about our wonderful teachers on our staff page.
