About Us

In 1976, a group of interested parents led by the Cardos, Thomas
and Reese families saw a need for quality pre-primary education
in the Brighton area. Within one year, they rallied enough support to
open the Brighton Montessori School.

In 30 years, over 800 preschoolers and kindergartners have
graduated from the Montessori program in Brighton and many of
the area's public school students on the honor roll are alumni of
Brighton Montessori School.

Today, BMS remains the only private non-profit Montessori school
in Brighton for children ages two and a half to six. The school is
accredited by the American Montessori Society, fully licensed by the
Colorado Department of Human Services, Division of Child Care,
and operated by a committed group of teachers, parents and
community members who work together to provide a safe and
stimulating learning environment.

Brighton Montessori School offers children a unique opportunity
to grow in an environment that:

Encourages
the child to select and participate freely in activities
and makes it easy for the child to learn social as well as academic
skills.

Helps the child become a unique individual with self direction,
inner discipline, and a sense of responsibility.

Nurtures self-confidence and self-esteem through daily
experiences.

Promotes healthy physical and social development.

Fulfills the child’s need for independence and encourages
good decisions.


Our Mission
The mission of Brighton Montessori School is to nurture respect,
responsibility and achievement; facilitate personal empowerment;
and develop lifelong learning attitudes and skills, using the
Montessori method of education for individuals of early childhood
age.

Our Vision
The vision of Brighton Montessori School is to become a regional
leader in providing the highest quality Montessori education, under
the guidance of certified teachers, in an environment that
encourages each child to achieve his or her full potential.
