Welcome to Our School

The Follow the Child Montessori School offers an exceptional Pre-Primary Montessori program for children 2 ½ to 6 years.  We also offer daycare before and after our morning and afternoon classes.  We are staffed by dedicated, experienced and carefully-trained Montessori professionals and are affiliated with the American Montessori Society and the Michigan Montessori Society.  Our teachers adhere to the Montessori Philosophy and the Montessori Method of teaching with an emphasis on “the joy of learning” and respect for self, others and the environment.  

We believe that the consistent, practical application of the Montessori Method allows each child to reach their fullest potential.
Our school is conveniently located on Latson Road, approximately 1 miles south of M-59 and 2 miles north of Grand River.  We are situated on 2 acres in the country atmosphere of Howell in a cozy home-like setting with a large grassy outdoor play area surrounded by trees.    

Follow the Child Montessori is a  Montessori education for children 2 1/2 years old up to 6 years old. Our classrooms are mixed-aged environmentscombining children of Preschool and Kindergarten age into one classroom.
