Ellington Montessori School is not a chain or a franchise. Theresa Nobilski started this small school in 2012 and still owns it today. She is involved in every aspect of the school and passionate about the education and safety the school provides. 

Ellington Montessori School has partnered with Music Together. Each Music Together collection includes a mix of original songs and traditional tunes from the folk, jazz, and world traditions. Children gain a repertoire of fifty to seventy-five songs a year! What a wonderful foundation for a life-long love of music and music making!

This enormously beneficial program for toddlers promotes active learning, early communication skills, and ultimately leads to earlier and richer language development. Teachers have been trained by staff from the American School for the Deaf.
