J. Allen Axson Montessori Families,

It is an honor and a privilege to introduce myself as the new principal of J. Allen Axson Montessori School. I am truly excited to join a school community so deeply committed to Montessori philosophy and the timeless principles established by Dr. Maria Montessori. At J. Allen Axson, the focus on educating the whole child—academically, socially, and emotionally—aligns closely with my own values as an educator and school leader.

I bring to this role over 22 years of experience in education, including 14 years in school administration. Throughout my career, I have remained passionate about fostering environments where non-traditional methods of learning are celebrated, and children are encouraged to explore, grow, and discover their unique potential. As both a wife and a mother, I also understand the importance of creating nurturing and inclusive spaces where all members of the school community feel valued, respected, and heard.

I look forward to working in close partnership with our dedicated staff and engaged families to ensure that every student at J. Allen Axson continues to thrive in an environment that celebrates curiosity, independence, and a lifelong love of learning. Together, I am confident we will build upon the school’s strong foundation and continue to support each child’s academic and personal development.

Thank you for the opportunity to serve this extraordinary community. I am eager to begin this journey with you and am committed to maintaining the excellence and integrity that define J. Allen Axson Montessori School.

-Miss Tamara
