Alpha Montessori was established in 2007 by Rupali Abdulpurkar. We have two locations in the Plano and Frisco areas, serving children from 3 months to 10 years in our infant, toddler, and preschool programs. We offer full- and part-time options, including before/after school care and summer camps to meet any family’s needs.

At Alpha Montessori, children love learning and have fun doing it. You see it in toddlers racing to their classrooms and preschoolers engaging with their Montessori work.

We hold our students to high standards, and our dedicated faculty create an environment where children embrace challenges in and out of the classroom. No preschool provides a better balance of academics, social skills, and extracurricular activities, giving children a broad foundation while letting them excel in their strengths.

We celebrate individual differences. Our community includes children from diverse cultures and backgrounds, and our curriculum integrates multiculturalism and diversity, preparing children to engage in our connected world.

Alpha Montessori is unique, and I say that as both the Owner and Head of School and a parent of a graduate. The honor, respect, and compassion we instill, combined with a balanced education, prepare children for lifelong success.

Lynda Landreth has been involved with Montessori education for thirty years, serving as a parent, teacher, director and owner of private schools in the Dallas, TX area. She holds a BFA degree in Fine Arts and C.M.E. in Montessori Primary education. In addition to her work with Montessori schools as a consultant, she presents seminars for parents and teachers on how to build character values in children. The Character For Kids seminars are currently being conducted in universities in Russia, Ukraine, and Lithuania, as well as the U.S., with the goal of training future teachers to be models of character and to give them an understanding of the way children acquire these values. Values presented in the seminar are honesty, trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, courage, caring, and fairness, all of which are qualities taught in Montessori schools around the world.

As an advocate for children who are living in a busy high-tech world, Lynda Landreth is continuing research for a new book on the “wonders” and “wounds” of childhood that make up the person one becomes as an adult. Psychologists warn that the first years of life are the foundation for a child’s success as an adult. There are basic dependent needs which must be met during these critical years: being cared for, feeling accepted and loved, and given opportunities to explore their world.
Unfortunately, many parents are not aware of these critical years from birth to age six, so the incidence of unacceptable behavior and failure in school continues to increase. Many parents simply do not know how to respond to their growing, inquisitive child. The Montessori experience combined with informed parents make a good team for achieving our goal of raising good children.
