History

HMMA was established as a satellite school of The Selwyn School in Denton in 1981. "Selwyn Country Day School" opened on a leased site in Trophy Club. In 1987, the school moved to its current location in Southlake. In 1990, it was agreed that Selwyn Country Day School would separate from the Selwyn School in Denton and Highland Meadow Montessori Academy (HMMA) was established as a non-profit, Montessori school with its own governing board. The campus consists of several classroom buildings, playgrounds and a soccer field with room for future expansion.

HMMA is an affiliate school with the American Montessori Society and its faculty are certified Montessori teachers. Our goal is to provide an educational environment with an atmosphere of warmth, love, caring and respect. The needs and safety of the children always come first, and it is our desire to foster the development of the whole child.

HMMA currently offers Montessori education for children from 18 months through 12 years. There are currently  115 students enrolled at HMMA. We have one toddler class, three primary classes, one junior and senior elementary class. The school maintains its small school intimacy while offering additional enrichment classes.
