"&lt;p&gt;Montessori School of Franklin is a community of children, parents and staff dedicated to following the development of the whole child. While practicing grace and courtesy, the child directs his/her day and has lessons in practical life, sensorial, math, language, science, music, and cultural activities. The freedom of purposeful movement allows the child to develop according to his/her needs. While developing socially, emotionally, and academically, this community provides a secure, warm and enriching environment for the children.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Our School was founded in Spring 2001 by a group of parents of children at Ithaka Montessori School, which closed in May 2001 after serving the Franklin community for 16 years.&amp;nbsp;Montessori School of Franklin is affiliated with&amp;nbsp;the American Montessori Society (AMS)&amp;nbsp;and is classifed as a Category 1 School by the Tennessee Department of Education.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Montessori School of Franklin does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, nationality, ethnic origin, or sex in the administration of its admission policies, staffing, or education programs.
