The History of Greensboro Montessori School
In 1974, three Greensboro mothers, seeking an environment of educational self-discovery for their pre-school children, formed a cooperative nursery with one hired teacher. The school took the name of The Greensboro Language Center and the following year became incorporated as a non-profit Montessori school.
In 1978, the directors approved a merger with the Friendly Avenue
Montessori School and changed its name to the Greensboro Montessori
School. Prior to moving to its current location in 1989, the school
rented facilities at the First Moravian Church and later a small
building behind Guilford Middle School. Since its inception in 1974,
our school has grown from one three to six year old primary classroom
of twelve children to more than 350 students and 60 staff.
