This week, Wendy LaRue is in Dallas, Texas. Wendy was selected to present her dissertation research on Montessori Secondary Education at the Walden University Research Symposium! Kudos to Wendy on her research and for being picked to present!!

Eva Thornton, Odyssey Montessori secondary guide, was recently accepted into Walden University’s Master of Science in Psychology program.

The “Montessori method” is the foundation of the educational program at Odyssey Montessori. This method was developed by Italian physician and child psychologist Dr. Maria Montessori, nearly 100 years ago. Today there are Montessori schools throughout the world, including approximately 5,000 in the United States and more than 100 in Virginia—proof that this method of education is as relevant to teaching children in the 21st century as it was to teaching children in the early 1900’s.

We encourage all who are interested in Montessori in general, and Odyssey Montessori in particular, to make an appointment to visit our school and see our community in action.
