The Silver Spruce Family
Silver Spruce Montessori was born from a mother's desire to provide the best for her children. That strong Mother Bear instinct and passion continues to permeate all aspects of this very special school. Our intimate, home-like environment can soften the transition to school for young ones; and often makes Silver Spruce feel like a second home. This combined with our teachers' passion,caring and professional training make Silver Spruce a truly unique preschool & K experience.

Mr. Bryan
Founder ~ Facilities Manager
Need help? Ask Mr. Bryan!
Mr. Bryan is our everything handyman, go-to guy. Fix-its, build-its, lift-its, paint-its - if we can think it then he can do it. Prior to founding Silver Spruce with his wife, Charlene, Mr. Bryan worked professionally as an engineer. This proved very useful as he renovated the large1890 Colonial Revival house that Silver Spruce calls home. He continues to improve the school facilities on a daily basis.

1890 Colonial Revival
We are so proud of the home of Silver Spruce. A beautiful, historic building with a rich history nestled into a pastoral landscape. We believe it provides the perfect backdrop and is a unreplicable character all its own.
