My three children attended The Hockessin Montessori School from pre-school through 8th grade. Their Montessori education has set a solid foundation in academics and personal growth. They graduated from HMS with a strong sense of independence, problem solving skills, executive functioning skills, self advocacy, creativity and innovation.

The teachers are incredibly nurturing and supportive and the personalized education they provide for our children is unparalleled. Where else can a 2nd grader work on a 6th g...
