Since 1965, Montessori Center School has provided Santa Barbara families with a high quality and challenging education. A beautifully designed campus and inviting classrooms convey a sense of order and harmony for children ranging in age from 18 months to 12 years old. With teachers committed to understanding the whole child, students develop intellectual skills along with emotional and social skills needed to thrive in today's global community. Guided by experienced, credentialed teachers using the Montessori Method, our dynamic learning environments inspire creativity, productive thinking and a lifelong love of learning. Children select work during uninterrupted blocks of time across the curricular areas, developing tools for intellectual exploration and learning. Our students become self-directed learners through participation, leadership and active decision making.
