Montessori Credential Grant Program

Program Details

Less than 9% of Montessori guides identify as Black in the United States. Our Montessori Credential Grant program is designed to bridge the gap and invest in the future of leadership in Montessori education.

 

The Montessori Credential Grant provides financial support to aspiring Black Montessori educators, covering tuition and fees for their Montessori training to ensure they can pursue their credentials without the burden of debt. 

 

Tuition payments will be made directly to the training center rather than an individual. This grant program does not cover application fees, books, materials, or travel expenses.

 

We've invested more than $500,000+ to provide tuition for 55+ Black educators studying at training centers nationwide.

Eligibility Requirements

To be eligible for this grant program, applicants must:

  • Be located within the United States or Puerto Rico.

  • Plan to attend a MACTE accredited program, with the exception of certain adolescent programs

 

Please note: experience in a Montessori setting is not required. We encourage all Black educators in every stage of their career to apply. However, we will prioritize applicants who have already applied to and/or have been accepted into a training program. 

Eligibility Requirements

To be eligible for this grant program, schools must:

  • Be located within the United States or Puerto Rico.

  • Plan to attend a MACTE accredited program, with the exception of certain adolescent programs
