“I love Montessori, and every chance I get I like to tell people about the philosophy and the freedom of learning found in the classroom.”
-Jama McKinney
Jama McKinney’s passion for education naturally lead her to the Montessori approach while researching education opportunities for her daughter. The Montessori method more closely resembled her and her husband’s own philosophy about child rearing and learning. She became an advocate after seeing the success her daughter, Sarah, found after coming to Center Grove Montessori. She believes that the opportunities in the Montessori classroom provide a more natural learning environment for children and loves to see the “glow” on a child’s face when a concept comes together for them. Jama has been a frequent volunteer in the classroom and was very excited when she was asked to join the staff.
