From modest beginnings in 1967, Austin Montessori School has grown, under the direction of founder Donna Bryant Goertz, to be a thriving community of children, parents, faculty, and staff on three Austin campuses. Austin Montessori provides an integrated, inclusive, highly personalized educational environment for children from 18 months to 15 years old.

Austin Montessori is internationally known in Montessori circles as an exemplary school, and it regularly hosts teachers-in-training and other Montessori professionals who come to observe or to attend workshops. Austin Montessori School is the oldest and largest Austin area school recognized by Association Montessori International (AMI).
