"It has been my greatest joy to serve you and Christ through the work of Sophia Montessori Academy. Thank you to all who have walked alongside me on this journey. I pray you continue to support the mission as we welcome our new Head of School, Scott Blackwood. It is because of you that Sophia is what it is today. Thank you!"
We are incredibly grateful for her vision and dream, culminating in what we know as our school today. Below is a short interview with Ms. Pauline reflecting on her time with Sophia Montessori Academy.
Introducing the Sophia Montessori Fund
The Board of Directors of Sophia Montessori are excited to announce the Sophia Montessori Fund to honor our co-founders, Pauline Meert (and Jolene Ortega) for their vision and dream of establishing an independentCatholic Montessori school.
This fund will allow the mission of Sophia Montessori to continue far beyond our lifetimes. Each one of you have contributed to the success of Sophia and we cherish your love and care of our special community.
$100,000 Matching Gift!
We have been fortunate to receive an opportunity to match all gifts to this new fund up to $100,000! Wow! What a statement to the blessing this school offers our children and their families. It will be a big reach for our parents, grandparents, alumni and greater community to attain this matching gift goal, and we invite you to give generously in Pauline’s honor to allow us to ensure the work we’ve accomplished the past seven years continues to flourish.
