The School
St. Catherine’s Montessori (SCM) is an engaging and vibrant education community, serving children 14-month-old through twelfth grade in the heart of Houston, Texas. SCM upholds the values of its shared Montessori and Catholic heritages. As an AMI school, St. Catherine’s follows the philosophy, curriculum, and traditions established by a respected educator Dr. Maria Montessori. More than simply a method of education, the Montessori approach encourages the child’s natural curiosity and fosters the whole child’s development—intellectually, physically, socially, morally, and spiritually. As a Catholic community, St. Catherine’s nurtures students’ spiritual development so that each student may experience the presence of God both individually and in the community. Through a combination of rigorous academic study, moral education, and spiritual inquiry, students are prepared for admission to and success at leading universities across the United States.
