Mission
Bright Water Montessori School celebrates diversity, respect, and passion for learning in an environment that nurtures and prepares the whole child for life.

Vision
Bright Water School is inspired by the educational philosophy of Maria Montessori and sets high expectations for all children. In partnership with parents we guide students to develop their individual gifts while preparing them for life in a cooperative community and a changing world. We nurture independence, a love of learning, cooperation, creative thinking, and respect for self, others and the environment. Bright Water seeks to be a model for North Minneapolis, a school without an achievement gap.
