What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?

Acacia Montessori

We are a one-room, Montessori, preschool program. Our primary guides are from the Somali community. As a Montessori, we provide an environment know as the Children's House. It is a community of learners. The materials in our classroom are designed to give children the keys to learning - not the answers. The children form the community. It is their space. We foster independence and critical thinking.

Population(s) Served
People of African descent
