As well, private schools can offer unique programs based on religious, philosophical, and educational approaches.

A Leading Montessori School in Markham

Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Sunrise Montessori School used a method of education that has been refined and enhanced for over 70 years. Through dedication to developing a love for lifelong learning, our school continues to be one of the leading Montessori schools within the Markham area. Its longevity may be explained in no small measure by the confidence and trust placed in its programs and directress by two generations of parents of young children in the York Region districts.

Montessori: Nurturing Children from Infancy to Elementary School

In the course of its history, SMS has been served by highly experienced classroom directresses. Under the personal guidance and mentoring of our Master Teacher and Montessori Training Institute Director, Dr. Daniel Jutras, SMS has made tremendous improvements to promote the highest standards in education per the MACTE standards. Our students, from preschool through upper elementary school, learn in an enriched classroom environment as we have added more interesting and exciting Montessori materials, and overall made the Montessori curriculum mandatory for all students. We have also added new infant and toddler classes in keeping with Dr. Maria Montessori’s core belief that the most important part of intellectual growth begins at birth.
