Amanda Morris- Board Member

As a child, my parents enrolled me in the local Montessori program near Chicago. Although I was young, I still have very fond memories of my time there. When my family moved to West Lafayette in the fall of 2005, it was only natural to enroll our then 1 year old in the toddler class for the following year.  We have been MSGL parents now for five years!  Ashleigh is currently in Elementary while Nicole is enjoying River Birch and Globe Willow.   My husband, Brian, and I have always been impressed by the teachers, staff and the other MSGL families that make the school the wonderful place it is. After watching both of my girls grow tremendously in their experiences at MSGL, I am eager to be involved in the growth and future development of the school by continuing my service on the board. In the midst of my full time parenting job, I am also a part time Family Physician with Sigma Family Medicine. I am also thankful to be able to work with my husband who practices both Family and Sports Medicine in the same office.
