Our Lab School

Where we’ve been and where we’re going

OUR LAB SCHOOL

Our founding board unified around the vision of implementing a bold vision for education reform: to educate the whole child and ensure strong, equitable outcomes. We founded a non-profit organization, applied to the State of Texas, and received a charter to open Austin’s first free public Montessori school.

Magnolia Montessori For All opened its doors in 2014 for 300 children in Pre-K3 through 3rd grade. We added a grade level every year until 6th grade. We currently serve 500 children in Pre-K3 through 6th grade.

Our non-profit organization also opened an Infant & Toddler community.

Reimagining Public Schools

OUR FACILITY

In 2016, we set out to reimagine what’s possible for public school architecture. We worked with Page to design a world-class facility on a budget. Our facility was featured in Architect Magazine in 2018 and received an American Institute of Architects Education Facility Design Award in 2019.

Our facility is located in East Austin at 5100 Pecan Brook Drive, Austin, TX 78724.

Montessori For All is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. Our innovative work is funded by donors from across the world. Help us bring purpose, joy, & justice to all with your support today:
