Pleasant Hills Montessori School in Ellijay, Georgia serves children ages 3–12 using an individualized Montessori curriculum designed to support whole-child development. The school actively supports students with learning differences, ADD/ADHD, and offers occupational therapy, speech therapy, and ABA services on-site. With an average class size of 15 students and 90% of faculty holding advanced degrees, the school provides a structured, developmentally-focused environment well-suited for children who benefit from hands-on learning and personalized pacing.
