Sugar Creek Montessori School was founded in January 1994 by its current directress, Lalita Trehan.
The Montessori approach offers a broad vision of education as an aid to life.
Montessori is a personalized approach in which each child, respected as an individual, discovers the joy of friendship in a spontaneous way. Our classrooms are well equipped with Montessori materials, and developmentally appropriate educational aids, and provide an environment where children are free to respond to their inner guidance to acquire different concepts and life skills.
The children develop independence, orderliness, coordination, concentration and self-discipline through their natural desire to work and learn at their own pace.
