Kristi McAlister is the founder and Head of School at Centennial Montessori School, an AMI environment serving children from birth to 12 years old. She holds the AMI Primary diploma from the Maria Montessori Institute of London and a Masters in Urban Education from Kings College, University of London. Kristi began her career as a researcher at the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development and has taught children at the Children’s House, Elementary, Middle and High School level in both traditional and Montessori settings. She has published articles in Montessori journals in the US, Australia, India, and the UK, many of which are particularly focused on Montessori parenting. Most importantly, Kristi is the mother of five Montessori children ranging in age from 2 years old to 15 years old. This year, she happens to have one in every plane of development under 18! She was a Montessori child, and though she loves all aspects of her Montessori work from Head of School to work with AMI’s Educatuers sans Frontiéres, she is particularly passionate about supporting families in their own great work of supporting the child.
