Joyful. Engaging. Impactful.

Hudson Montessori School is a close-knit, child-centered community, one where each student is known and learns at his or her own pace. Our approach capitalizes on children’s natural curiosity and encourages skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, persistence, and the ability to make connections across disciplines. Working in teams and independently, students are guided to achieve their personal best.

 

We embrace the Montessori philosophy to help each child find his or her purpose so they can understand and value the impact they can make on the world. From hands-on projects using a discovery-based approach, to extensions outside of the classroom, students hone their academic, communication, and social skills and develop a sense of self-motivation.

 

Beginning with our youngest students and progressing through our Elementary and Middle School, students leave HMS well prepared to succeed in high school and beyond.

" Hudson Montessori middle school graduates are the most academically well-prepared students we see at our school. The education they receive at Hudson Montessori is superb. "

" We are impressed by the respect teachers show each child, the child-centered environment and materials, and how our son’s interests allow him to direct his learning experience."

YCC Lead Teacher

"Montessori is not just about guiding children on their educational journey, but about watching them unfold into confident, independent thinkers who are curious and eager to continue learning throughout life. Every step they take towards self-discovery is a testament to the power of trust, respect, and the freedom to learn at their own pace. In their growth, I find the true joy of teaching at HMS! "

Upper Elementary Teacher

"Teaching Upper Elementary at Hudson Montessori School is a joy rooted in transformation, when curiosity ripens into understanding, and understanding unfolds into wonder. At this age, students don’t just learn about the world; they begin to seek their place within it. Their questions deepen, their fascination grows, and I’m honored to walk beside them as they discover not just knowledge, but themselves. This is the heart of the work I’ve always dreamed of doing.

Director of Auxiliary Programs, Safety & Security

"Auxiliary Programs are designed to enable time for children to explore, create, and discover; a time for them to make new friends and to reconnect with their classmates in different settings. We try to offer a wide range of programming from after-school care, extracurricular clubs and sports, off-day coverage to camps during the summertime. Our goal is to make HMS feel like an extension of our students’ home for both them and their families. "
