December 24, 2023 — ETC Montessori, a well known name in the Montessori education sector, has officially announced the completion of its acquisition of Montessoriforhomeschool.com. This strategic move marks a significant expansion of ETC Montessori's educational offerings, particularly catering to the homeschool market. The acquisition aligns with ETC Montessori's mission of making Montessori education more accessible and affordable.
Aki Margaritis, CEO of ETC Montessori, expressed enthusiasm about this new chapter, stating, "This acquisition is more than just a business expansion; it's a step towards fulfilling our commitment to spreading Montessori education. By integrating Montessoriforhomeschool.com into our family, we aim to reach a broader audience, especially those who choose homeschooling for their children."
Montessoriforhomeschool.com, known for its comprehensive range of Montessori curriculum and materials, will now operate under the ETC Montessori banner.

Our goal is to ease this burden while maintaining the highest educational standards."
Furthermore, ETC Montessori will continue its free shipping policy, a move that further emphasizes the company’s dedication to making Montessori education accessible to all.

This acquisition is a significant step for ETC Montessori in its journey to broaden the reach of Montessori education. The integration of Montessoriforhomeschool.com with ETC Montessori's existing offerings promises to bring a more diverse and inclusive range of educational tools to the forefront, supporting the homeschooling community in nurturing the holistic development of children.
