Welcome to Bruno Montessori Academy
My name is Theresa Bruno Sprain, the founder and Head of School at the Joseph S. Bruno Montessori Academy. The school began in 1982 with four preschool children in one small building on ten acres of land in Shelby County. Today, we have grown to over two hundred students from preschool through 8th grade. We encourage you to tour our wooded and peaceful twenty-five acre campus and see the children working in the beautifully prepared learning environments.
The school is accredited with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and also with the American Montessori Society. Our Montessori philosophy allows children to progress at their own pace with hands-on materials, individual lessons, and small group lessons. It is our mission to provide the opportunity for all students to grow to their fullest potential as we stress the holistic development of each child. We welcome you to explore our website and to visit our campus; where you will find that Joseph S. Bruno Montessori Academy is truly a foundation for a lifetime of learning.
Sincerely,
Theresa Sprain
Head of School
Ms. Theresa
