We're on a mission

At Sturrock Montessori, a private school in Beaumont, TX, we assist children in their quest for knowledge by providing a multi-sensory, self-paced learning environment that empowers them to imagine, explore & create.


 
Our ability to imagine allows us to explore our potential and create our future. The ability to imagine and the self-confidence to explore empowers children to create and lead us into the future. This is why we follow the child.

Surrounded by nature

Sturrock Montessori, a private school in Beaumont, TX, opened in August 2006 for elementary age students, and then five years later, expanded in 2011 by adding an early childhood classroom. From its inception, our school has been located in Beaumont off of Moore Road approximately 5 miles west of Major Drive.

Sturrock Montessori is committed to providing open, spacious classrooms filled with natural light including an outdoor workspace, a large outdoor play area, and a covered outdoor area. Our students are surrounded by nature! In addition to the animals we care for in our classrooms, students have the opportunity to garden, and interact with other animals on the property.


 
Children are full of imagination and a sense of wonder. They have a natural desire to explore and to learn. As adults, it’s our responsibility to allow our children to imagine, to explore and to create.
— Directress Courtney Sturrock

Learning without pressure

Sturrock Montessori, a private school in Beaumont, TX, serves students ages 3 years old through 12 years old, in pre-kindergarten through sixth grade. We believe children have a natural desire to learn. A goal of our's is to provide a safe, comfortable environment that encourages students to explore their natural curiosities.

Curriculum is designed to meet the individual needs of each student, providing extra repetition when the child needs reinforcement of a concept and accelerated learning far in advance of traditional schools. We seek to create an environment that allows for learning without pressure. We assist children in their quest for knowledge. We allow students to work independently, and at their own pace.


 
The child is both a hope and a promise for mankind.
— Maria Montessori
 

Testimonials

During William’s 2 years at Sturrock Montessori Academy, we have never doubted that his intense & natural devotion to learning about his world has been in great hands. His experiences at Sturrock have enlivened his confidence in his personal style of learning that will likely remain with him for a long time to come. As parents who value a sense of wonder not only in the world around us, but also the world of our child, it has been a privilege to see in William the dynamic development for which Montessori curriculum promises. We are so grateful for not only the Montessori Method and its principles but also for the compassion & patience Courtney offers consistently to her students. We truly respect her skills and graceful dignity.

We highly recommend Sturrock Montessori Academy. Sturrock is absolutely the best school in Beaumont! Our daughter Tinsley truly loves everything about the school: the teachers, the Montessori style of education, gardening, taking care of the animals, recess, her wonderful friends, etc. She is counting down the days until school starts again in August. The education she is receiving is priceless. Every time I pick her up from school she can’t wait to tell me about her exciting day. The school is kept bright, clean, and very well maintained. I have a wonderful peace of mind knowing my daughter is happy to be going to school in the morning. Best of all, she has already developed a love for learning.

I just want to say how much we have appreciated your patience, dedication, and expertise these past two years. Dair and Brenden have grown so much under your guidance. We are excited to move forward, but at the same time we are sad to leave such a wonderful school behind. You will be missed and we will always be grateful for the time our children spent with you.
