Montessori School of Ojai

My daughters attended Montessori School of Ojai from Kindergarten through Eighth Grade, graduating in 2009. They are graduating from High School this year and have been accepted at Penn State and NYU at the age of 16. My daughters embraced their years at MSO and looked forward to school every day and were actively engaged in learning and discovery.Their Montessori education helped them develop critical thinking skills and gain confidence in themselves. This foundation and love of learning has taught them how to become independent students. This foundation has helped them succeed at the high school level, with one challenging herself at Foothill Technology High School with rigorous AP classes and the my other daughter working independently at El Camino High School while attending Ventura College. They both gained leadership skills through the Montessori Model United Nations Program in their middle school years. Their life long love of learning was sparked at MSO and contributed to their success in high school and their acceptance at two the best colleges of in the country. I cannot say enough great things about Montessori School of Ojai.

My daughter is almost 3 years old and has been attending the Montessori school of Ojai for a year.  Going to school a few mornings a week was her first experience away from me, and her teachers were so wonderful at helping her through this transition with their genuine love, attention and care.  I love how simple and balance the classroom feels, with all objects of natural material that kids use for their work.  Kids also get to participate in the garden and develop a relationship with all kind of different animals present on campus.  They have music classes every week and my daughter already participated to two musicals, which were the two most precious shows I have ever seen!  My daughter is thriving at the Montessori school of Ojai and I am so grateful for her teachers to create such a nurturing environment for her.

The Montessori School of Ojai is a wonderful place for learning of all ages. This is a great, small, private school with an amazing campus and delightful teachers. The Montessori classroom materials and individualized learning make it suitable for all ages and levels of learning. Your child can take a little extra time and help to get through the lessons, or can breeze through it and excel onward at their own pace. This really has been a blessing, and we will stay at Montessori as long as possible.

Our son has now been attending Montessori School of Ojai for 3 years. He has an individualized learning program designed as a collaborative effort by his teachers, the school, and based upon his needs and desires to learn more. His hunger to learn, and his imagination are nurtured in the MSO environment. All of the teachers have a vested interest in each individual child's success and it shows. We are thrilled to be a part of a great school and a diverse learning environment. Whether your child is an advanced learner or has learning challenges, MSO follows the tradition created by Maria Montessori to work with each child as an individual. We love MSO.

WE LOVE MSO! Having attended Montessori Ojai myself, there was no question about where I wanted to send my kids when it was time to start Pre-school. Small class sizes, individual attention, a large beautiful campus with ponies & goats. Hot lunches are cooked on campus using fruits and vegetables from the garden... Montessori Ojai truly is a caring, nurturing community that has allowed my 3 boys to become confident independent thinkers, and excel academically.
