North Garland Montessori School (NGMS) was established in 1997 under the direction of Mr. Manooch Varasteh. NGMS pioneered Montessori education in Garland. Our school is the first and oldest non-sectarian Montessori School in Garland. We believe and practice the educational philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori (1870-1952) to help children everywhere reach their maximum learning potential, while becoming well balanced individuals. Our overall objective of the School’s activities is to promote “Excellence in Education” using the Montessori Method, implemented by our teachers and our children in close cooperation with parents.
