Hopper Creek Montessori School was established in Yountville, California in 1978.
Hopper Creek Montessori School is dedicated to the growth of the total child.
Socially, emotionally, developmentally, academically and physically your child's needs will be met on a daily basis.
The Montessori philosophy provides a prepared environment to meet the needs of each individual child based on where he/she is at in their development.
A positive self-esteem coupled with a love of learning is our goal for the child.
These two goals can be achieved through the independence the child acquires as he learns to make choices in the classroom, talk about his feelings and be a responsible member of the classroom. Positive attitudes and discipline is what we strive for.
