We hope our website answered your questions about the Richmond Montessori School and briefly introduced you to the educational principles, philosophy and methods developed by Dr. Maria Montessori. Along with educating children and adolescents, parent education is also a very important part of RMS. The following links provide additional information regarding a Montessori education, as well as other sites that we have found helpful to both prospective and current RMS families.
