About Us

Christian Montessori Academy

Do you want your child to fall in love with learning?

Christian Montessori Academy values the importance of family and community. As a family-owned, operated and attended school, we are committed to creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can thrive. Our Founder and Director Shany Palant was trained as an AMI Primary Guide and has worked in Montessori environments for nearly 20 years. Shany has worked as a guide, program director and assistant head of school as well as Spanish immersion guide.

With school curriculums and political agendas changing and shifting the main focus of education, Shany decided in order to better equip her family, and give other families an opportunity to learn in a safe environment she stepped out and began the process of opening her school. Shany has been married to her husband Matthew for 13 years and they have 4 beautiful children together. Matthew and Shany have done missions, lived abroad and started a primary school in Kenya. Shortly after their first child was born they moved from Mexico to Texas and have been a part of the local church serving in different capacities. All 4 of their children are currently enrolled in Christian Montessori Academy and we look forward to meeting your family and cultivating relationship and community which goes beyond just our school hours.

Now offering programs for children ages 3 months – 6 years old. Spots are filling up fast, don’t wait!

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide a Christ-centered and family focused community that educates and nurtures our children’s development through the Montessori Method, preparing each one to become a compassionate leader with integrity who honors God and is empowered to change the world.

Our programs

We offer three programs for children between the ages of 3 months and 6 years.

Our programs range from Infant to Children’s House because it’s never too early to get ahead. Our class sizes are small enough that each student receives the attention they need but big enough that our students can learn and grow together.

Our approach and Montessori Method

Designed by experts
Qualified staff implement a scientifically designed curriculum to aid each child in their development. Teachers tailor lessons to each student’s interests and abilities, giving them freedom to explore their own interests as they take their first steps towards independence.

Preparing children for life
Montessori students overtake children who attend other kinds of schools in terms of academic achievement, social and emotional development, and overall happiness. They also develop lifelong skills, such as growth mindset and a friendly relationship with error.

Building community
Teachers and families form really close bonds at Christian Montessori Academy. Your child’s teacher will reach out to you to keep you informed of your child’s development.

Experience why our children are HAPPY to learn!
