About
Head of School Welcome
Welcome to the Springmont School website. If this is your first visit to our site, I am certain you will find a wealth of information about our school and community. However, no website can replace a visit to our school, and I hope you will feel free to contact us to schedule a tour of our wonderful seven-acre campus complete with modern buildings, farm animals and many gardens. I hope our current students and parents, as well as our alumni and friends of the school, will also use our website to stay abreast of events at school and as a tool to stay connected to our community.
Springmont is the oldest Montessori school in the southeast and has been nurturing children since 1963. Plato wrote: “The direction in which education starts a person will determine his future life.” As an educator, I have made this statement my credo. All children have talents, and schools hold the responsibility for creating an atmosphere where they can excel. In our small, family-oriented community, we look at every student as an individual, eager to gain knowledge and to be successful. At Springmont, we create a warm, experiential educational environment that prepares our graduates for secondary school success by building curiosity, mastery, wisdom and distinction.
If you know a Springmont School family or alumnus, I encourage you to speak with them about their positive experience. Please also accept our invitation to give you a tour of our school - a personal visit is truly the best way to experience our unique learning environment.
Sincerely,
Jonathan K. Alden
Head of School
