School picture day is my favorite day of the year. Everyone dresses so cute, and we get pictures to frame in the school room. Behind these blurs are some BEAUTIFUL smiling faces.

And they were all so excited to take a picture of everyone together holding hands. These children really love each other, and we love them so much.

If you’ve ever wanted your child to experience the love and care that comes from a small but determined Montessori school, Peony Buds is the place for your family. We are one of the few schools in the state (and country….and world….) adhering to the standards set by the Association Montessori Internationale. When you have your child join our program, you know that they are getting the very best Montessori education, and the same quality education you can find at AMI school across the entire world. We have the lowest tuition rate for Montessori programs in the Indianapolis area, and the tuition is all inclusive (you only provide a packed lunch 4 days a week, and we take care of the rest!).

We have 3 spots to fill for the rest of the year until we increase our licensing capacity!! We would love to have any child as a part of our garden!

It has been an utterly ✨magical✨ first two weeks in our new school building. The children are settling into the space and routines and diving into lessons every day. They are loving everything that we’ve worked so hard to build for them.

And this week everything gets better because we FINALLY have our geometric cabinet coming in the mail. It’s a fundamental piece of the curriculum that we have had to substitute for the past two years and I’m SO excited for all the lessons we’ll get to do with it!!

We’re still enrolling for our remaining spots!! If your child loves to play in a rock quarry on the daily or feed a dragon worms every morning, then they should come spend time in our garden!!!

🎶This is my school
My place to work and play
My friends and I are living out each day
Washing a table, polishing a cup
Every day I’m growing up!
This is my school
My place to work and play!🎵

We are ready for today’s licensing inspection, Saturday’s back to school night, and Monday’s first day in the new building. Our hearts are full and our hope is endless.

Let us all look beyond the weeds to see the hope of the garden.

Moments from the school room last week. These children are each just so lovely and our school assistant takes wonderful pictures of them engaging in their works.

Our whole group is over the moon to move into our new school building. You can help us achieve our dream by sharing this post so we can reach four more families to join our community. Peony Buds is the best place for your child to learn and grow and I’d love to show everyone how we can use the love of children to make the world a better place

The summer has been so amazing. It’s been hot, but we’ve cooled off plenty in our splash pad, with popsicles, and by staying inside to do some intense learning in our work periods. The children have grown so much both physically and mentally, and it’s been wonderful to be their directress in life.

We only have 2.5 weeks until we move into our new building, and only 4.5 weeks until we start the new school year! If you’ve ever wanted your child to be a part of creating something utterly amazing while creating themselves, Peony Buds Montessori is the place for your family. We have four spots remaining for the school year so now is the best time to join!!

And that is a wrap on Primary Training.

If you’ve reached out in the past couple of weeks and I haven’t responded, it’s because I’ve been immersed in finishing all the rigorous requirements for my AMI Primary training program. We sit oral exams next week and graduate on Thursday.

This has been one of the hardest years of my life. I’ve worked 11-12 hour days five days a week, held prospective student tours almost every weekend, hosted Parents’ Night Out once and month, and been in zoom class for three hours for weeks at a time studying Montessori theory and practices.

It’s been exhausting and overwhelming and a lot of the time I’ve wanted to just quit…. and then I remember all my children and how they’re going to change the world some day. It’s our job to give them the best possible experiences so that they can make everything better for every living being.

Thanks for everything MTCSTL.

I sit written finals this week. 8 papers on Montessori theories and practices written in six hours. It is so much…SO much. It’s the summation of a century of curriculum and philosophy condensed into 24 pages. How can it even be done??

It’s so hard…but then I remember all the sweet little faces waiting for me back in the classroom. Absolutely everything I do is for them. Every word, every album edit, every hand drawn illustration, every stitch by hand while making geography folders. It’s all for them and for the future of humanity.

These children are my life. They have GIVEN me my life. I am who I am because of them.

And that makes it all worth it.

(And now I’m crying in the library 😂)

The most essential thing you can do with a bunch of children is plant berries because lord knows they eat their body weight in them DAILY!

We now have 4 baby strawberries growing in our garden box! They join our blueberry bushes, and will soon be neighbors to teeny tiny tomatoes and small cucumbers. The kids are so excited to help grow things for us to eat in the school room!! They’re responsible for watering them every day to help them grow.

If your kid loves digging in the garden, have them join our bunch! We only have three spots left to fill before we move into our new school house, and you definitely don’t want to miss all the fun and love we have here!!
