Montessori Childrens House and School Renovation Update

Montessori Childrens House and School is an AMI certified school for children 3-6 years old. Founded in 1970, we are one of the oldest Montessori schools in the Dallas area. The 38 year old original building is currently undergoing a major facelift. We are expanding and renovating the entire building for the first time in the school's history. This blog serves as an update for construction progress. For more information about the school go to mchs-dallas.org.

"The best for the smallest...." Maria Montessori


After years of legwork and planning, and despite many setbacks, Montessori Children's House & School renovations are underway! It is with great excitement that we bring our latest progress to you, the parents of current, past, and future students. We also warmly welcome those alumni who are now old enough to search the web for themselves (some of whom have children of their own!) to the first MCHS - renovation blog.

We are excited to be adding a new classroom and an entirely new wing that will hold our Before and After Care (BAC) room, after school enrichment classroom, and nap room. In addition, the entire building has been gutted and all the classrooms will have new bathrooms and kitchen space. The reception area will be large and open. Our administrator, Christa, will have a beautiful new office, and the guides (teachers) will have a lounge.

Finally, we will have a building that is as stellar as our school's reputation! We know everyone is curious, so we will keep you up-to-date with photos so you can see what's happening. Keep checking back for new photos as we post them!

Remember, MCHS is currently a construction site and it is imperative for safety reasons that NO ONE go down the driveway. You can view the construction from the Abrams Road sidewalk above the school if you really need a first-hand look at the progress.
