Our approach is designed to empower each child to achieve independence by combining our hands-on curriculum with personalized learning to create an environment where curiosity flourishes, independence grows, and academic excellence is a natural outcome.

We want your child to see and believe: “I am capable!”

what makes us stand out.

How is the Guidepost Montessori approach different from conventional education?.

At Guidepost, we join with parents on their mission to help their child grow and live well. Together, we design an education to empower each child to build the knowledge, skills, and confidence she needs to craft an independent, flourishing life.

Though there are many differences between the conventional approach and Guidepost, here are some of the most important:

Conventional Education vs Guidepost Montessori
What is the Guidepost Mission?.

At Guidepost, our mission is to support each child in achieving her own independence. To do this, we help her gain the knowledge, build the skills, and craft the personal character she needs to flourish. Above all, our goal is to cultivate joy—in the pursuit of knowledge, in effort applied to work worth doing, in the achievements of herself and others, and in taking the steps to author her own life.

Learn about the key milestones we support—from infancy through high school.

Read more about why we educate for independence, and how we support independence for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and elementary-age children.

What are the outcomes of your programs?.

Montessori education is known world-wide for having positive impacts on both academics and social and emotional skills.

At Guidepost Montessori, when we design an environment to meet the developmental needs and interests of children alongside personalized care and support, the child can learn advanced skills at an accelerated pace.

Our students, for example, regularly learn to read by the time they’re 4-years-old and can perform all four math operations with 4-digit numbers by the end of their Kindergarten year.

The language and math skills of our kindergartners are on a par with what children in conventional programs learn in 3rd grade or beyond! What’s more, our students learn advanced academics joyfully—while simultaneously developing deep focus, self-discipline, and positive social skills.

Do your programs include Kindergarten?.

Yes! The third year of our Children’s House program, designed for 3- to 6-year-olds, is the capstone kindergarten year. In this year, the child has been well-prepared to experience an explosion of literacy, learn advanced math concepts, and use her hard-won ability to focus, problem-solve, and persist through challenges to then make advanced gains across the curriculum. Children who continue with Guidepost through Kindergarten are often well-ahead of their peers when they enter 1st grade.

Learn more about the capstone Kindergarten year at Guidepost.

Learn more about the next exciting stage: the Guidepost elementary program.

Following elementary, students continue on to our Montessori middle and high school, the Academy of Thought & Industry: a school that combines a classical liberal arts emphasis on history and great books, and a Montessori emphasis on independence and agency.

How does Guidepost partner with parents?.

At Guidepost, we want to make the best education the best for children and parents. This is why we provide year-round, extended-day programming at no extra cost, enabling consistent and uninterrupted access to the care and developmental support parents expect. We invite you into your child’s world—with daily photo and video updates, regular milestone meetings, and parent-child events that showcase your child’s progress. We work to understand your unique context and needs, so that we can provide support for milestones at home as well as at school.

In everything we do, we strive to cultivate joy as you watch your child grow!

We have been sending our toddler since he was 1 year old in here. He was first with the nido program w/ Ms Leela. We moved him from another daycare where he used to constantly cry and would be put on pacifier and ear infections. After the transition Ms Leela and her team was able to keep him without pacifiers and that reduced the infections and that improved engagement and independence. During his toddler transition, we requested to be in Ms Shree s class owing to language transition help, and the team was very accommodating. Her team including Ms Desiree, Ms Ursula, Ms Lisa and all the other floating guides were really helpful in developing his language skills and independence. Their love for children and personal care is excellent and keeps me out of fears dropping my kid at daycare.

I am delighted to share my positive experience with my twin boys' school! From the moment we enrolled them, the staff at the daycare center are exceptional. They demonstrate genuine care and affection for every child, creating a welcoming atmosphere that puts both kids and parents at ease. The facility itself is well-maintained and equipped with everything children need to thrive. It's evident that the staff takes great pride in keeping the environment clean, safe, and stimulating for the kids. Our kids are genuinely happy at Guidepost. Their smiles and enthusiasm when talking about their teachers and friends are the best indicators of the positive and nurturing environment they enjoy every day. Thank you for all that you do to support our family!

My son recently started going to this school and it has been of tremendous joyful experience. I absolutely love how I am able to have open communication with his guide. The school environment is very calm and welcoming. It felt safe and peaceful as I entered the building. I cannot wait to see everything my son will learn and adapt from Montessori System. Thank you for all you do.

I have been extremely pleased with the daycare my child has been attending for the past 1.5 months. The facility is not only nice and clean, but it's also staffed with exceptional teachers who truly care for the children. My child looks forward to each day, enjoying a wonderful time in a safe and engaging environment. It's impressive to see the variety of things my little one learns on a daily basis, and I greatly appreciate the consistent follow-ups and updates that the daycare provides to parents. Without a doubt, I wholeheartedly recommend this daycare to any parent seeking a nurturing and enriching experience for their child.

We love Guidepost Round Rock. Our son is in the toddler program, and he is so excited to go to school each morning and so happy when we pick him up. His guide is wonderful and we can tell she truly cares about her students. She is very communicative via email and also always has time to chat about how he's doing during pickup. We also love the pictures we get every day. We really appreciate the care they have taken with him while he is potty training in particular. We are very happy that this has been our son's first school experience and that is has been so positive for him so far.

I can’t believe it’s been almost three years since my daughter started at Guidepost Montessori! The care and attention she's received there have been outstanding. The guides go above and beyond to create a nurturing and stimulating environment for the kids. They genuinely care about each child's development and well-being. And they even offer monthly date nights for us parents! It's a must for any parent looking for a nurturing and enriching school. Don't miss out!

We learnt about this school as my nephew used to go to Guidepost Montessori in another location. We toured with the school and loved it. Very well organized and friendly staff. We have been at this school for a couple of months now and our son has shown great progress- both academically and socially. Definitely recommend!
