American Montessori Society

Our Mission

Corte Madera Montessori is dedicated to the development of the whole child, through authentic implementation of the Montessori Method.  We place equal importance on academic, social, physical, and emotional growth.

Our school provides a positive and nurturing environment where we attend to the children’s needs, harness their interests, and encourage the developing abilities of our 2- to 6-year olds. Our Montessori approach fosters a joy of learning, supports independence, and enables creative exploration.

We believe that children come to school with unique interests and strengths that should be recognized to create a personalized learning and development path for each child.

Our Mission

Classrooms

Our mixed-age classrooms are led by Montessori certified teachers. Many windows and sky lights fill the spacious hexagon classrooms with natural light. Each well prepared environment contains a full set of Montessori materials and reflects the core belief that children learn best through their own efforts.
