Strong Roots Produce Bountiful Fruit
Just as a tree must have a strong root system to grow and produce fruit, a child needs strong roots. At Living Promise Academy, we focus on two types of roots.
1) Academic roots that provide the foundation for future learning and
2) Spiritual roots with a focus on Jesus as our loving Savior.
We believe each child should have the opportunity to find the joy of learning in a respectful and nurturing environment based on the love of Christ.

About Us
Welcome to Living Promise Academy, a high quality learning center in Morristown. We are located at 5075 Dearing Road, Morristown, TN 37813. We are a school where children find joy in learning. Our cozy, homelike environment is designed to nurture children’s curiosity and eagerness to learn. We provide an engaging program using the classic method of Maria Montessori.
Our classroom environment contains Specially designed manipulative materials for development that invite children to engage in learning activities of their own individual choice under the guidance of a trained and experienced teacher. Children learn by making discoveries with materials that cultivate concentration, motivation, self-discipline, and a love of learning.
Children have ample opportunities to explore the outdoors through play, gardening, and nature studies. Regular STEM activities encourage innovation and creativity. With a low student-to-teacher ratio, children receive nurturing, individualized attention that allows each child to build the intellectual, social, emotional, and spiritual skills necessary to be confident individuals, compassionate friends, and joyful learners.
Our curriculum and programs are designed to build a strong foundation in academics as well as social, emotional, physical and moral development. We offer an enriching curriculum based on the five components of the Montessori Approach: Practical Life, Sensorial, Math, Language, Culture.
