Join us for an engaging and insightful workshop designed to empower Montessori parents, educators, and staff in recognizing, supporting, and celebrating neurodivergent learners.

Through expert-led discussions, shared experiences, and practical strategies, we’ll explore how the Montessori environment can uniquely support children with autism, ADHD, sensory processing differences, and more. We’ll also address important questions like, “What is the optimal learning environment for my child’s developmental needs?” and “How can I help identify and address my child’s specific learning needs?”

What You’ll Gain:
✅ A deeper understanding of neurodivergence in early childhood
✅ Insights on leveraging the Montessori environment to support diverse learning needs
✅ Access to community resources that foster collaboration between families and educators
✅ Clarity on the importance of partnering with your school and providers—and recognizing when/if to explore other learning environments to support your child’s optimal development
