Montessori Education is distinguished by developing a nurturing environment, independence, confidence, and development of freedom and discipline. Our programs are designed using the Montessori Philosophy and methods of Dr. Maria Montessori, which emanates out of respect for the child.
We offer each child a "prepared environment, " which allows him or her to develop individually at their own pace, according to his/her potential in a non-competitive atmosphere.As Dr. Montessori observed, the child from birth to six years has an "absorbent mind, " is interested in facts, and has a need for "self-construction."

Calvary by the Sea Montessori School is a mission of Calvary by the Sea Lutheran Church, and as such is part of the wider 'Ohana of Calvary. From time to time, children and families are invited to participate in 'Ohana events. The School has been in existence since the Church was founded in 1955. In 1978 the School adopted the Montessori philosophy, curriculum, and materials for a Primary program.
AMS-affiliated teacher education programs offer the finest professional preparation and teacher training available for Montessori teachers and administrators.

Year-Round Tuition includes the Academic Year plus Winter Camp (8:00 - noon, 2:45 or 4:00), Spring Camp (8:00 - noon, 2:45 or 4:00) and Summer Camp at a savings of $500. Parent(s) come in to meet with the director for 10 - 15 minutes then observe at the toddler class and/or primary class. Once an application is received, the school will send an acknowledgment letter by mail inviting parent(s) to schedule an interview.
On a daily basis, the child works individually, in small groups, and in large groups. By mixing the ages 3-6 during our morning session, the child has the opportunity to experience a real community so that education becomes an "aid to life." For the five year old child, we offer the Extended Day Session from 12:30 pm - 3:00 pm.
Our Toddler Program offers an environment responsive to the unique needs of the two year old. At this age, the adult and child are co-workers in experiencing daily life. The adult in the environment is sensitive to the "teachable moments" and expands the experience to its fullest potential for learning.
