The Admissions Cycle for the 2025-2026 School Year is Now Open

We Asked…You Answered.

Every year since 2012 we ask parents to share their opinions of our program.  We are grateful to all who answered. MSH is a unique program in that the parents “own” the school.  As enrolled families you make up the Montessori Society of Huntsville, you elect board members who oversee the policies and finances of the school and who supervise the Head of School, who manages all operations, staff, etc. for the school.  So what you say really matters!

This year is an special year for the school because we are coming to the end of our first 5 year cycle for accreditation by the Southern Association of Independent Schools.  For the past two years we have been putting our practice under the microscope.  We reached out to you at our Fall Parent Society meeting to find out if we were meeting our mission.  Our board members combed through every policy to make sure it was relevant and in line with best practices.  And since 2012, we have asked every parent to complete an exit survey to see why they were leaving us for other educational institutions.

All the information from these sources was analyzed and compiled into a single report called the SAIS Self-Study.  The Self-Study also contains the board of director’s long-term improvement plan for the school and outlines our future strategic initiatives.  On February 21-23rd, a team of independent school leaders led by Renee Kropff of The Bright School in Chattanooga will visit our campus and determine if we continue to qualify for the esteemed accreditation by SAIS.  The team will review our self-study, observe our practices, and then give us commendations and recommendations.  Our preliminary reports have all been well-received and we anticipate full accreditation.   If you would like to read the self-study, you can find it at the link below.  As we enter our 51st year of operation, we are very proud of how far we have come and very excited about where the future of MSH is leading.
