About

At Common Roots Montessori School, every decision — from our classrooms to our community — is rooted in care, authenticity, and belonging. Get to know who we are, the people who guide your child’s day, and the values we live by.

From eight children in a single classroom to a thriving Montessori community in St. Paul — discover how CRMS came to be, and the AMI accreditation that confirms our commitment to authentic practice.

Our guides are highly trained, deeply caring, and genuinely love what they do.

A dedicated Board of Directors — parents, community members, and our Head of School — guides CRMS toward a thriving future.

Belonging is at the center of everything we do.
