What first brought you to RMS?

I first discovered RMS 16 years ago while searching for the perfect school for my daughter. The moment I walked in and saw the classrooms, I fell in love. The environment was so warm, calm and biting and the children were happily engaged n their work. My very first thought was” I wish I could have gone to a school like this!” Sixteen years later, I still feel exactly the same way , and that joy has never faded

What’s one Montessori principle that really resonates with you?

The Montessori principle that resonated most with me is”follow the child”. It lets each child grow at their own pace without judgement

If you could choose any superpower, what would it be?

If I could choose a superpower, I’d clone myself. Then I could be with all the students at once, helping and having twice the fun
