  • At The Grove School, children spend this crucial learning time with highly qualified educators. Our teachers are required to have degrees and credentials in early childhood or environmental education. They bring deep expertise into the classroom to make the first taste of subjects like math and solar energy fun and memorable. Connecting regularly with parents is also part of their job. Emails and tweets replace paper updates on each child’s progress and activities.

  • The families who send their children to The Grove School are your friends and neighbors. They're the people you see on the playground, run into at the library and wave at out the window. We're all about being your local school and building a tight-knit community that reflects what's important to you.

  • What if you worked at a preschool where you can use your education, creativity and passion to actually teach? Where you’re expected to bring an innovative curriculum to life? And where you build lifelong relationships with parents and children? It’s an amazing opportunity to make a positive impact on children’s lives at a school with a unique sense of purpose.

The Grove School of Cary would like to welcome Ms. Andrea to the Grove School family!  Ms. Andrea is a teacher in our Peach Grove classroom and our Mommy and Me teacher as well.  We are so happy to have her with us!  Let’s all give her a big Grove welcome!

Hi, my name is Andrea Montgomery! I am from Flint, Michigan, but I migrated to North Carolina in June 2008 and I have a BHS degree in Human Services.  I love children and helping individuals go after the best goals for their life!

I teach in the Early Preschool classroom here at The Grove School.  I am also the Mommy and Me teacher as well! I have been working in child care for over four years but I started working with children in the public school system in 2004.

I enjoy crafts, cooking, nature, reading and hanging out with my friends and family.  Three fun facts about me: I have a twin brother, I love the winter season, and I am a college football fan for Michigan (Go Blue)!!  I am so grateful to be working here at the Grove School and I look forward to meeting you!
