The Setting

Montessori West is a sprawling school on a one-acre campus. Care has been taken to maintain a home atmosphere to provide the child an easy transition from the family to a learning environment with a small group of children.

Nestled at the foot of a hill, with mountain views and a lush landscape, the school offers the child the opportunity to be close to nature. The Children’s Garden is a special place where the children sow, plant, and tend their herbs, vegetables, fruit trees and flowers.  Our playground is also a natural habitat for a variety of birds and other desert animals.
