The Montessori Journey
The Montessori Journey is Almost Here!
SATURDAY, AUGUST 29, 2026
Start at the Huntington Campus and finish with lunch and conversation at Freeman West for those who are able to stay. Your start time is based on the grade level of your oldest child at MANH.
START TIMES:
8:30am START: Infants, Toddlers, & Elementary Parents
9:15am START: Primary, Kindergarten & Erdkinder Parents
Parent Participation Required
This is a parent-only event, and at least one parent from each family is required to attend. The Montessori Journey replaces all three required evening Parent Education sessions for this school year, bringing our whole-school community together for one meaningful learning experience.
What is the Montessori Journey?
The MANH Montessori Journey (formerly known as The Silent Journey) is an extraordinary opportunity to step into your child’s world and experience what learning looks like in a Montessori classroom. You’ll explore each level in order—from infants to adolescence—and see how the materials and methods naturally build on one another, guiding children toward deeper and more complex understanding at every stage.
The Montessori Journey is more than a tour. It’s an immersive, eye-opening experience that deepens your understanding of Montessori and how your child learns and grows each day. You’ll connect with other parents, witness the magic of Montessori in action, and gain valuable insights to support your child’s educational journey.
What Happens During the Montessori Journey?
As you move through each stage—from infants to adolescence—you’ll experience:
Discovery: Teachers will welcome you into their classrooms and invite you to explore thoughtfully prepared environments that support children’s work and independence.
Guided Lessons: You’ll interact with materials and take part in lessons, just as your child does! These hands-on experiences reveal how each material is intentionally designed to teach specific concepts and inspire curiosity.
Reflection: End the morning by sharing your thoughts, asking questions, and connecting with other parents as you reflect on what you’ve experienced.
