School Motto: Inspiring Lifelong Learning Since 1964
Santa Cruz Montessori nurtures and guides children from 18 months
to 15 years with a philosophy of quality education and exceptional
care in a safe and nurturing environment. Our programs focus on
building independence, a love of learning, and respect for self,
others, and our world. At Santa Cruz Montessori we see education as
a "preparation for life." The mission of Santa Cruz Montessori is
to guide and nurture the natural unfolding of the whole individual
in a developmentally based Montessori learning environment. We
believe that respect - for ourselves, each other and our
environment (school, community and world) - is the foundation of
Santa Cruz Montessori philosophy and drives our efforts at peace
through education. We are committed to respect in all areas of our
educational efforts, including: collaboration among staff, Board
members, volunteers and parents to achieve mission-driven goals; an
environment of acceptance for diverse people, ideas, cultures and
economics; compassion and trust with one another; and individual
responsibility in contributing to the creation of a quality
Montessori environment for all.
