Teacher Assistants

Our wonderful Staff at Dixie Montessori Academy

Dorothy Munford

Mrs. Munford has ten years of experience working with special needs children. She also has attended Montessori training with a focus on language.

Dorothy was amazed at the difference between Dixie Montessori Academy and the previous schools her children had attended. The positive impact DMA had on her children now has her aspiring to positively impact all the students of DMA.
