Starflower Montessori School is a Black-led organization which will serve children ages 16 months to 6 years in North Minneapolis.
Our mission is to affirm the identities of every child and free them to rise to their highest potential. We are a community embedded school that welcomes and nurtures children and families in a culturally sustained environment. We cultivate mind and body in a way that allows children to create justice in the world around them.
Startup Fundraising
We are currently fundraising for our Startup Fund. One of the biggest barriers for new early childhood programs is start up costs. Your support will help us prepare to open our doors by funding materials, furniture, and renovations needed to meet licensing requirements.
More About Us
