Admissions Process Tutition Rates School Calendar Online Application Our Philosophy \"Help me to do it by myself” Montessori allows children to experience the joy of learning at an early age while preserving the spontaneity, initiative and curiosity inherent in every child. This method promotes the development of independence, concentration, and self discipline as well as fostering love and respect for others and their environment. Why Montessori? “The goal of early childhood education should be to activate the child's own natural desire to learn.” - Maria Montessori The Teacher's Role The Montessori Classroom Concept of Education Programs We have 2 primary (3-5 year old) classrooms and one toddler (2 year old) classroom. Our Classrooms Daily Schedules Our Teachers Parent Testimonials \"As a parent of four children who attended Novato Montessori, I can't overstate the value this school brought to our family. Every day I dropped off one (or two) of my children I never worried. I knew that they would be loved and cared for. What also stands out is how the teachers recognized and adapted to each of my children's unique learning styles and personalities. The staff created a genuine community where both children and parents felt welcomed and valued every day. I am so appreciative and forever grateful of the educators and staff of Novato Montessori. Thank you for creating a loving environment that was both nurturing and enriching.\" Julie M. \"Our whole family enjoyed our time at the Montessori School of Novato. It was so helpful to have different class size options to choose from, and our children benefitted from both classrooms. Malin was an attentive and encouraging teacher to our son, and Amanda made learning fun and inspiring for our daughter. We also attended aftercare and the kind and thoughtful staff there made the time fly by. As parents, we really appreciated the sense of community and the regular photo updates via the secure app. We also loved how the staff applied the Montessori mindset to the educational environment, including the emphasis on healthy lunches and reusable packaging, and limitations on branded clothing to keep the focus on learning. We wish we could keep these teachers and this community for forever!\" Teresa & Phillip E. \"Montessori School of Novato has been an exceptional educational haven for our two children over the past three years. The school consistently demonstrates professionalism, passion, care, and extensive experience in early childhood education. As parents with full-time jobs, the daycare, school, and summer camp options provided by Montessori School of Novato have been invaluable in helping us find the perfect balance for our family. Beyond convenience, the school fosters a strong sense of community and belonging (holiday parties, potlucks, open houses, parent socials, etc.) It is a place where our kids feel safe to be who they are and feel at home. The classrooms are thoughtfully designed to be calm and fully adapted for toddlers, ensuring a conducive learning atmosphere. We are grateful for the dedication and commitment of Montessori School of Novato in providing a holistic and enriching educational environment/experience for our children.\" Paméla & Jack D. \"We couldn’t be happier with our experience at the Montessori School of Novato. Both of our children have attended the school, and it’s been a truly positive and nurturing environment for them. Our older child, now in 2nd grade, has absolutely thrived since starting here. His reading skills are well beyond what we expected for his age, and it’s clear that the individualized approach and thoughtful guidance from the teachers have made a big difference. The teachers really take the time to get to know each child—not just academically, but as whole individuals—which has helped our son build confidence and stay engaged. Our younger child, who is 3, has also had a wonderful start. It only took her a few days to settle in, and after just a week of teary drop-offs, she now runs into school with a smile.
