Preschool Kindergarten Elementary - Over 35 Years of Montessori Experience!
Bell Canyon Montessori Teachers
Ms. Brooke- School Director
Hello! My name is Brooke. I’m excited to join the Bell Canyon community!
I’ve worked in childcare for nearly seven years and have had the opportunity to work with children of all ages — from infants through 12 years old. My journey in early childhood education has included a variety of roles, including serving as the director of a Montessori school for about a year, which I absolutely loved.
What I enjoy most is getting to know each child and their family — building those relationships is truly the heart of why I do what I do. I’m looking forward to becoming part of this wonderful community and connecting with more families along the way!
Mrs. Cindy - Preschool Teacher
My name is Cindy Millett and I was born and raised here in Salt Lake City. I have been a Montessori teacher at Bell Canyon Montessori for 31 years.
In 1994, I graduated with my Montessori Method of Education degree from the Montessori world Educational Institute. I have worked in the Montessori profession for 38 years with 36 of those years as a head teacher of children from ages 2 through 6.
I have always had an unbelievable passion to teach, help, and care for each child. The children bring an excitement to my job every day. I was drawn towards the Montessori educational method because I can focus on each child’s individuality and they can grow and learn at their own pace and interests.
Ms. Gisa - Preschool Teacher
My name is Gislene Ribeiro, my students call me Ms. Gisa and I am from Brazil. I fell in love with the Montessori Education almost 44 years ago.
I had my training for more than a year in Salvador, Bahia Brazil. I was trained by ABEM – Brazilian Association of Montessori Education, from Casa Dei Bambini Italy. My passion for the Early Education is beyond words.
The beginning of my career was the beginning of my training, often being tested inside a classroom with 28 children from 3 to 5 years of age. I worked for 18 years at Escola Curumin and 10 years with Pre-school and Kindergarten including children with Autism and other disabilities. I became a Principal and worked for 8 years being responsible for 12 teachers and 260 students.
I speak Portuguese, English, Spanish and a little Italian.
Ms. Agnes - Elementary Teacher
Hi! I’m Agnes Scott — born and raised in the sunny U.S. Virgin Islands, but now thriving in the snowy mountains of Utah since 2020. In 2019 I graduated from the University of the Virgin Islands with a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education. After discovering Montessori, I fell in love with its hands-on, child-centered approach, and I’ve proudly been a Lower Elementary Montessori teacher for the past five years. What I love most about Montessori is how it encourages independence, nurtures curiosity, and fosters a genuine love of learning — values I carry with me every day.
Since moving to Utah, I’ve embraced a whole new world of adventure — from snowboarding and rock climbing to reading by a cozy fire and roller skating through scenic trails. I’m beyond excited to join the Bell Canyon community and am truly looking forward to getting to know the amazing students and their families. I can’t wait to learn and grow together in this new chapter!
