Lyons Community Montessori school adhere to the principle tenets of the montessori method, and we do so in our beautiful learning environment nestled in the foothills of the colorado rockies.
Our overarching goal is to teach children in a safe, loving, and nurturing environment that allows them to grow as individuals by promoting independence and self-reliance, expanding their natural sense of curiosity to help them make sense of the world around them, and shaping their experiences of working in groups.
