Pines Montessori School We touch the now.

Education is often thought of as touching the future. The future is that place that is always outside of our grasp—a day or two or a decade away.

We touch the now.

The child, the parent, the educator, the community member, the international friend … we want to intentionally embrace the human in front of us now.

With this in the front of our minds, we believe that we can contribute significantly to a better world. This is our mission. Our mission is the now.

Our now is installing a child’s operating system. It is the core of who they are now and how they will proceed and process their future world. They are creating their default system to be full of warmth, wonder, abundance, and opportunity.

It is only during childhood that we can make this happen.

Choosing what is right in the present moment will create a better world.

Being open to taste something new and savor the pleasure of a new ritual and culture in the now opens pathways for the future.

Learning to mentor and give back now prepares us for new opportunities.

Learning to be mentored pushes us forward.

We are Pines Montessori School, an IMC-accredited family community of children 6 weeks to 15 years of age. With over 50 faculty members, 21 Montessori credentialed teachers (whose average tenure is 12 years), 260 children and over 500 fun, faithful, and brave Montessori parents. We have served Kingwood, Texas, and our surrounding community for 47 years.

This year we planted native Texas wildflowers in front of our school. These gorgeous flowers bloomed into many different varieties that grew in the community, complementing each other without ever losing their individuality. They live in the now. They are with us for a season and will leave us, but they will reseed us for years and generations to come. The work of Dr. Montessori and the work of Pines and the work of your school is no different.

As we move into our fifth decade we are building our very first new construction: a two-story, lower and upper elementary building now. We are Pines Montessori School! 
