Ms. Lori Bossy opened Montessori Visions Academy in 1999 and has been the Director ever since. She holds a Master’s Degree in Education, a Nevada State Teaching license for K-8, and Montessori Primary, Lower, and Upper Elementary Certification. Ms. Bossy has taught in elementary education for over fifteen years, served as an adjunct staff at University of Nevada Las Vegas as a teacher for students studying Education, and periodically teaches about Montessori education at private colleges in Las Vegas. An active member of the community, Ms. Bossy participates in numerous volunteer organizations which assist impoverished and homeless people in Las Vegas. Her volunteer work also extends to coaching a plethora of youth sports, including basketball, soccer, and track, which she has done for over twenty years. She became a great advocate of youth sports when her own four daughters were stumbling around the field and has continued to coach since. In her spare time, Ms. Bossy enjoys solving murder mysteries with the cast of CSI: Crime Scene Investigators.
Ms. Elizabeth Bossy maintains order outside of the classroom, as the office manager and website coordinator. After a brief sabbatical, Montessori Visions Academy is grateful to have her back in the office, helping the school to run smoothly. When she was away from Montessori Visions, Ms. Bossy learned the mastery of nutritional cooking as a chef for the Nevada Cancer Institute. She received her Bachelor’s degree in Biology from the University of Denver. When she’s not on campus, Ms. Bossy spends her time with dog, an American Staffordshire Terrier named Riley.
