A Distinctive Montessori Community in South Florida
Founded in 1991, Summit-Questa Montessori School serves toddlers through 8th grade and is celebrated for its nurturing, whole-child approach to education. Located in the heart of South Florida, the school is home to a highly experienced faculty, hands-on outdoor learning experiences, and a strong culture of collaboration between students, educators, and families.
Summit-Questa’s 10-acre campus includes butterfly and vegetable gardens, a wetland preserve, outdoor sports fields, a new gymnasium, and swimming pools — all designed to bring learning to life in meaningful and experiential ways. Its longstanding Montessori tradition, paired with a strong academic foundation and an emphasis on environmental stewardship and character development, has earned the school a trusted reputation among families in the region.
Aligned Values, Shared Purpose
Summit-Questa Montessori School’s mission to support each child’s individual journey, cultivate independence, and foster curiosity aligns beautifully with ISP’s educational ethos.
At ISP, we believe in growing the world’s most curious, confident learners — and in providing every student with the tools, opportunities, and guidance they need to thrive. Summit-Questa’s dedication to personal growth, respect for the individual, and student-led learning make it a natural fit for our community of schools.
Looking Ahead Together
Joining ISP opens the door to exciting new possibilities for the Summit-Questa community, including enhanced professional development for educators, global student programs, international exchanges, and long-term investments in school resources and innovation.
We are proud to partner with Ms. Judy Dempsey, the school’s founder and long-standing Principal/Head of School, and the entire Summit-Questa team as we begin this new chapter together. With ISP’s support, Summit-Questa will continue to flourish as a Montessori leader in the region while expanding the horizons of what’s possible for its students and staff.
