Elizabeth Vargo has been a Montessori Primary teacher at Pacifica Montessori since 2012. She started working at Pacifica Montessori School over twenty years ago after receiving her early childhood education units. At that time, the Montessori Method was new to her, but she soon realized that it was the only way she wanted to teach. She worked with Jennifer Call as her teacher assistant for a number of years, and then in 2011 had the opportunity to take the American Montessori Society (AMS) teacher training and became a Montessori teacher.

Elizabeth is also an artist. She has found that art opens children up and brings out their personality, potential, and confidence. Therefore, Elizabeth uses art as much as possible in the classroom.

Elizabeth finds it rewarding to be a part of a child’s growth. She enjoys watching them take the first steps into being productive citizens of the future. She shares, “Pacifica Montessori is more than just a school. It is a community of children working together.” Back to Our Staff Page.
