Many Rivers Montessori

We just finished our 3rd year at MRM and could not be happier, especially after the pandemic! In the fall of 2020, we decided to send both of our boys there because we were so pleased with the education our oldest was getting. We love the teachers and would recommend this school to anyone with kids toddler - 8th grade.

Amazing!

My daughter LOVES this school. I have never seen a 5-year old so happy to go to school. She comes home proud of what she does during the day, and is eager to go back to learn more. But beyond learning typical classroom curriculum, she learns what it means to be a role model to younger classmates and how to be respectful and part of a community.

We've had such a great experience at Many Rivers Montessori (MRM)! Our son is completing his Kindergarten year and we couldn't be happier with all he is learning - both academically and socially. We feel so great dropping him off at school each day, knowing he will be surrounded with caring, passionate, patient and well-qualified teachers. The Montessori model really fosters a "love of learning" and to see the fire grow in our son has been really rewarding. Thank you MRM!

This school could not be a better fit for our daughter. It’s proof that kids do not need to be forced to learn and are naturally interested in learning. We love seeing the spark in her, that desire to discover and explore, and this school does a great job of fanning that flame. She’s doing great academically (just got back great scores on the one standardize test they do a year). It’s impressive the math, language and history she knows, but way more impressive (and important) are the lessons she’s learning that don’t appear on standardized tests. Leadership, self-discipline, responsibility, independence and initiative - are all areas in which this school has helped her grow. And, she loves the hands-on, self-paced, collaborative and challenging work that she’s doing. She also loves that she get’s to follow her interests, regardless of what the other kids are doing. The teachers don’t lecture to a class where half the kids are checked out, they give lessons to individual or small groups of students who are ready for and focused on the topic. Our daughter is an energetic, engaged and accomplished student - and it has a ton to do with this great school.

Many Rivers Montessori is a vibrant educational community that thrives on diversity, inclusiveness, creativity, and transparency. A passionate group of families founded the school, which opened for its first academic year in fall 2014. The positive energy, expertise, and experience at Many Rivers Montessori is unparalleled. This collective of parents, children and teachers embodies the spirit of growing the Montessori community in Duluth, Minnesota and is already making a huge difference in the lives of many families.
