MWMS is growing to serve preK – 8th grade students!
​
The Minnesota Wildflower Montessori School (MWMS) is a member of the Wildflower Network of Schools, an innovative, open-source approach to Montessori learning. As part of this network, MWMS is developing an ecosystem of Montessori micro-schools that support a diverse mix of children, teachers, and parents on the unfolding journey toward fulfilling their potential. Our aim is to be an experiment in a new learning environment that is accessible to all families, that prioritizes and emphasizes deep parent engagement, and blurs the boundaries between scientists and teachers, between schools and the neighborhoods around them.
We are pioneering a micro school model, in which single-classroom school sites will serve 20-30 students and their families. Nestled within neighborhoods, MWMS school sites will have a deep connection to the needs of families in the local area, and will explore opportunities to partner with local businesses and community members to better serve students and families.
As a public charter school, MWMS reaches a much broader cross-section of our communities, providing one-of-a-kind learning opportunities that will support a diverse mix of children and families as they learn and grow. Our current sites are:
