Rasha Khaled

Transition Lead Teacher

Hello, welcome to 2018-2019 transition toddler class. My name is Rasha Khaled. I have completed the Montessori primary certification in Amman, Jordan in year 2000 and I have been an employee at Mission Montessori since then.

Additionally, I have taught Arabic as a second language to a variety of students in the valley for 9 years. My children, Mohamad and Dunya attend Mission Montessori. Mohamad is now 5th grade, and Dunya is in 2nd grade.

More about myself, I was born and raised in Amman, Jordan. After getting my Montessori certification, I moved to Arizona to continue my education. I was fortunate to meet my soul mate and got married in 2002. My hobbies are biking, traveling, and doing girls hairdos.

I am excited for this opportunity, to help your children build a sense of self-confidence and encourage them to find their interest and discover new things each day.

It is important for me to be able to assist you if you need to communicate your concerns or comments or to answer any questions. Please feel free to email me at rkhaled@missionmontessori.com.

I look forward to working with you and your child.

The kids are so much like caterpillars getting ready for their biggest journey. It’s all about transformation and the will of perseverance.

When I worked with the kids there that’s what I saw most. The transformation of young children into strong and passionate learners who would persevere through tough lessons about academics as well as everyday life no matter how hard it might seem. The metamorphosis that I got to witness there will stay with me forever. Mission kids are amazing people!!

I just loved my time as a Mission employee. I’ve worked in other schools before but the children at Mission Montessori were like no others I’ve ever worked with. They were all just such amazing little people.

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for providing such a great trip this week!

Lauren can’t say enough good things about the trip and all the experiences, being with her friends, how nice her chaperone was, making decisions about what she was going to eat, how she was going to spend her money. And all the things they did on the trip with seeing the moon, looking at the petroglyphs, doing a dig, learning about the Grand Canyon, and all the things that she enjoyed.

So I wanted to say thank you for providing such a great experience for them in so many aspects of learning.

You and your team did a great job!

We are looking forward to next year!

It was important for us to find infant care that fostered all aspect of our daughter’s development. Mission Montessori is providing her a foundation to thrive, shows her respect and respect for others, and is an integral part of our family’s functioning and well-being. Our daughter has become a very social, confident and curious child and has amazing opportunities in the years ahead with Mission Montessori.

My daughters have been with this school since they were each 2 years old and we love it. It teaches them more than just academics, it teaches them to be independent and well rounded. The teachers are amazing and it’s easy to see that they truly care about the well being and education of every child. My girls are excelling in so many ways and I am truly fortunate that we found this school for them.

The Middle School program at Mission Montessori strikes the perfect balance of academic rigor and compassion. The 7th and 8th grade students are encouraged to grow and learn in an environment where the staff are highly trained in adolescent development. With a combined class size of under 35, the students begin their day in a “Community Meeting” where the students are empowered to address each other with both compliments and concerns.
