Brookeside Montessori School, formerly the Montessori Academy of PA, was opened in 1975 by Barbara Broadbent and Ann Marie Heilmann. The school was located at 645 S. Reading Avenue in Boyertown, PA and served children ages 2 1⁄2 through 6th grade. In 1994 the founders of the Montessori Academy retired and the school moved to its current location at 1075 Route 100, Bechtelsville, PA and continued serving children in the surrounding areas. In 1995, the current owner of the school changed the name to Brookeside Montessori School and named Robin John as the first Head of School. A few years later it was decided to change the status of the school to a non-profit corporation run by a Board of Directors. Tax exempt 501c3 status was acquired in 2000. Brookeside Montessori School celebrated its 25th year of operating in 2020!
