Why Atlas

Ziv Tarsi, Parent of a current 9th grader.
"My wife and I both experienced the shortcomings of the public school system firsthand, struggling due to neurodiversity and the system's inability to effectively cater to diverse groups of students. When we became parents, we committed to make sure our son has a better experience than the ones we had.
I'm a firm believer in the Montessori philosophy and its holistic approach to education. I'm dedicated to fostering an environment where every student, regardless of background or learning style, can reach their full potential. "

Nick Holland, 7th grader at Cascadia Montessori
"What I like most about my school is that it’s small—I know everyone, and it just feels really comfortable. A lot of my classmates have been with me since we were little, so we all kind of grew up together.
We have the same teachers for more than one year, which I think is awesome. They really get to know you, and you can talk to them about anything. If I’m ever worried or need help, I know they’ll listen.
They definitely challenge me, but they don’t pressure me. I still get to make choices about what I want to learn. I’ve had chances to be a leader too, like in 3rd grade and again in 6th—those were really fun.
One of my favorite projects was researching record players. I got super into it, and then we actually planned a trip to a record store to learn more. That made it way more real and interesting!"
