General information

Why should you choose Santa Cruz Montessori?
An SCM education will provide lifelong benefits and is the most important investment you can make for your child. The results of an SCM education are clear: Children become young adults who are self-motivated, caring individuals who make positive contributions to the community.

Some find their passion in the sciences or engineering, others in the arts or the helping or teaching professions, while still others become entrepreneurs. Whatever the path they choose, your children are superbly prepared both academically and as whole people for whatever their goals might be.

Your child will learn responsibility, independence, collaboration, and respect for self, others, and our world--all wrapped within a robust curriculum of rigorous academics plus arts, drama, and foreign language. Whether you measure the results of an SCM education by the top-notch high schools and colleges our students attend, the surprisingly large number of high school valedictorians that come from SCM, the joy alumni find in their career choices, or by your child's enduring love of learning and achievement, you'll feel comfortable knowing that an investment in your child's education now is the best gift you can give. It's all available through the Montessori method and SCM.
