Our mission

Exceptional programs, loving relationships, and happy memories.

The mission of Pflugerville Montessori School is to offer exceptional quality programs, challenging experiences, loving relationships, and happy memories. We strive to help children continue their innate love of learning and to make education a joyful, lifelong process.

We are committed to providing a carefully prepared environment that guides children toward practical, intellectual, physical, and emotional discipline, promoting independence, self-confidence, self-discipline, respect, and personal and social responsibility, so they can make a positive difference in the lives of others.

Our vision for every child

Human jewels.

Our aim is to help young children develop into individuals of outstanding academic and professional caliber, with an equally outstanding character, who are sensitive and responsive to the needs of the world around them. We want our children to become human jewels.

True education goes far beyond accumulating knowledge. Knowledge should be shared and applied toward the betterment of people and the environment; only then does it become wisdom. And wisdom, in turn, requires the development of solid character.
