Children's House of Columbia is a non-profit Montessori school dedicated to the academic and social development of the whole child through the Montessori method of education. Founded in 1972 by Carolyn and Richard Angus and Mary Angela and Walter Johnson with the goal of providing Montessori education to children, Children's House maintains a strong commitment to providing access to the benefits of a Montessori-based education to all children without regard to race, gender, color, creed or national origin. Our mission is to provide students with an early and general foundation that fosters a positive attitude toward school, inner security and a sense of order. We aim to cultivate their sense of pride their achievements, to stimulate their curiosity, to encourage habits of concentration, initiative, and persistence. We want our students to value their ability to make decisions, to be self-disciplined, and to practice being responsible & respectful to members of their class, school, and community.
