Welcome to our site
Burlingame Montessori and Glen Oaks Montessori are dedicated to providing children the highest standard in Montessori education.
Our programs are aimed at developing the intellectual, emotional and social independence of the child in a multi-cultural setting. Each child is encouraged to develop at their own rate, benefiting from a high level of individual teacher attention and motivation. Our cozy classrooms and stimulating materials make Burlingame Montessori an excellent environment for a child's potential to be guided and nurtured.
The schools are owned and administered by Lynette L. Caron, who recieved her American Montessori Teaching Credential and M.Ed. from the College of Notre Dame. We are the sister school of Glen Oaks Montessori which is directed by Lynette's daughter, Megan Dunwoody, who holds a Bachelors Degree in Sustainable Agriculture and a Montessori teaching credential from the North American Montessori Center.
About our Teachers
The Montessori teacher functions as a facilitator of learning. As such, he or she is a designer of the environment, resource person, guide, role model demonstrator, and meticulous observer and recorder of each students behavior and growth. Our highly educated and trained teachers are dedicated to instilling a love of learning in their pupils. Our teachers hold a BA Degree or an Early Childhood Education Credential, as well as an American Montessori Teaching Credential. The professional team of teachers is not only knowledgeable and experienced, but is extremely loving and nurturing. The majority of our staff has been with us for a minimum of 4 years.
