Cy-Fair family operates network of Montessori Preschool education centers: In the 1800s, Italy’s first female physician, Maria Montessori, researched how children learn, which led to the development of an educational model taught in thousands of campuses today. Kevin Kalra said the model is all about allowing children to learn at their own pace in small classes where instructors can meet each student’s needs.
Jones Road Tree Service promotes tree health in Cy-Fair: Self-proclaimed outdoorsman David Mauk said his education on trees started at a young age, when his uncle taught him how to identify different types and how to take care of them.
