A Message from Donna Bernier:
“As I look back on the last 25 years, my heart is filled with immense gratitude. When we first opened the doors of Nashoba Montessori School, our vision was simple but profound: to create a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where every child could reach their full intellectual, social, and emotional potential.
Twenty-five years later, that mission remains the heartbeat of everything we do. From our humble beginnings to the vibrant communities we now serve at our Lancaster and Northborough campuses, it has been a privilege to witness thousands of ‘I can do it myself’ moments. Seeing a child’s eyes light up as they master a new skill in the Sensorial area, or hearing the rich vocabulary they develop through our language curriculum, reminds me daily of why Dr. Maria Montessori’s philosophy is as vital today as it was a century ago.


Our success over the past quarter-century is a testament to the dedication of our highly qualified staff—our ‘Early Childhood Developmental Specialists’—who guide and encourage our students with such grace. It is also a reflection of our wonderful families, who trust us to partner with them during these most formative years.
As we celebrate this silver anniversary, we aren’t just looking at the past; we are looking toward the future. We remain committed to fostering curiosity, initiative, and a lifelong love of learning in every student who walks through our doors.
Thank you to the entire Nashoba Montessori community for 25 years of growth, discovery, and joy. Here is to many more years of helping our children find their place in the world.”
Donna Bernier Owner and Director, Nashoba Montessori School
