About the Company

Apple Montessori Schools

Montessori-based early childhood education network

Apple Montessori Schools operates a network of early childhood education centers built on Montessori principles. At each center, young children explore hands-on materials in mixed-age classrooms, guided by teachers who assess progress and introduce appropriately challenging activities, while programs also include STEAM activities and yoga. Its growth reflects a family-founded lineage dating to 1972 and a move to 20 locations after a 2018 private-equity partnership that supports geographic expansion in the Northeast. The goal is to deliver accessible, high-quality Montessori-based education that blends traditional methods with modern learning and wellness, while sustaining the family legacy.
