Mead Montessori School seeks to create and sustain an optimum Montessori educational environment to enable each child to realize his or her richest potential for learning and to become an independent, self-motivated and contributing member of the world community. Our mission is to offer children an education that encourages intellectual, physical, spiritual and moral development, which prepares students for academic excellence, lifelong learning and responsible, caring lives. Mead Montessori School is located two miles from Downtown Knoxville in the Island Home community, less than a half mile from Ijams Nature Center. The historic Mead School was built in 1936 as a WPA project to provide schooling for the quarry workers of Mead’s quarry. Mead Montessori Primary Outdoor Classroom Open as a public school from 1937 to 1959, many of the school’s students and faculty still reside in the area. The building sat abandoned and empty for decaes until two local visionaries rescued the school and brought it back to life.
