Welcome to Butler Montessori!

A private Montessori School located in Darnestown, Maryland
Our mission is to guide children to be independent, resilient, compassionate, socially aware, global thinkers ready to navigate this changing world.
Welcome
As Head of School, I am inspired by the opportunity to fulfill the unique mission of Butler Montessori, which is guided by the work and writings of Dr. Maria Montessori (1870–1952).
At its core, our philosophy is simple: Follow the child.
Laura Manack, Head of School
"Butler is a place for kids to discover passion, explore creativity, and turn mistakes into learning opportunities. Its caring staff, attentive teachers, and community-focused families provide such a constant foundation, so kids could learn and grow to be well rounded and confident individuals."
