Hollyhock Montessori School is an intentionally small + nurturing micro-school nestled in the heart of the Fitzgerald neighborhood in Fort Smith, Arkansas. Founded as the collaborative vision of Fort Smith native Ariana Bray and Montessori educator Erin McCarroll, our mission is to provide an authentic and high-quality Montessori early childhood education to families who typically lack access to private school opportunities. We believe in the power of purposeful work within a supportive community to nurture the natural + joyful development of all learners. We support each and every student as an important part of our community by offering a safe and responsive environment, celebrating the diversity of our city, and nurturing strong relationships with parents and the larger community.
