Mission Bay Montessori Academy
We are a traditional Montessori school located in beautiful San Diego, CA with programs for children in Preschool through 6th grade. Our 10-month school year runs from September through June, and we also offer a Summer Program. We have been in operation since 1968.
In Montessori circles, the term “education for life” is often used. Success in school is directly related to the belief which children develop of themselves as capable, self-directed, and independent. Dr. Maria Montessori developed her specialized, hands-on curriculum methods over a century ago based on years of observing children learning. Each classroom environment contains a wide range of materials that attract the child’s interest and present concepts in a carefully sequenced order, under the watchful guidance of Montessori-prepared teachers.
"It is true that we cannot make a genius. We can only give
to each child the chance to fulfill his potential
possibilities." -- Maria Montessori
