Welcome homeT
he Ashland City Times’ annual Fact Book is a peerless resource for all things
Cheatham County, offering useful information not only for longtime residents,

development that has engulfed the Nashville area in
recent years.
This marks the 27th year for the Fact Book.
As always, the information is provided in a handy,
easy-to-access manner.

Sycamore Academy is a new privateschool located in Pleasant View, offeringcare for children six weeks througheighth grade.
Sycamore Academy strives to instillin children a passion for learning byspecializing in the time-tested, researchbased educational philosophy of MariaMontessori.
The Montessori method allows chil-dren to work at their own pace, manipu-lating high quality, strategically de-signed materials that introduce even thesmallest child to advanced concepts thatwill be used later in the abstract studiesof the sciences and mathematics.
Through the Montessori method,Sycamore Academy has designed a safeenvironment of peace, compassion,respect and accountability where chil-dren happily work, learn and acquirelife skills.
Each classroom is specifically de-signed to allow children freedom tomove about the room, choose their ownwork, use it appropriately and put itaway without constant instruction.
Children are guided by Montessoritrained teachers who gently direct eachchild to the answers they are seeking.
Sycamore Academy’s goal is to culti-vate the skills necessary in their stu-dents to create the next generation lifelearners, movers, shakers, and peacemakers.
