Innovation Montessori Ocoee Information

Innovation Montessori Ocoee began as Montessori of Winter Garden Charter School in 2011. Our school was founded when a group of dedicated Montessori parents, from a local, private Montessori primary school, decided that they were willing to do what it took to create an opportunity for their children to continue their Montessori education beyond kindergarten. They applied for a charter, rented a suite in a strip mall and opened the doors to our public Montessori school in August of 2011. Each year the school grew organically until it became clear that a new campus was required. The Board of Directors set the wheels in motion and, after lots of hard work, in January 2017, the City of Ocoee gave us the go ahead to build Innovation Montessori Ocoee (new location, new name) on 18 wooded acres within their city limits. Innovation Montessori Ocoee is a school created for children, by parents, using one of the most child-centered educational philosophies in the world – Montessori. Children are at the heart of everything we do and the best interests of our students are the basis of every decision we make. Our mission is to provide this strong authentic Montessori education in a Public-School setting for Kindergarten through 8th grade and now High School. Our vision is to provide a strong Montessori foundation that enables our students to achieve their full potential, develop curiosity, creativity, imagination, and become responsible citizens of the world.
