Since 1998, Montessori Academy schools have been providing quality preschool, elementary school, after school and summer camp programs for families living in the Boise area. You'll find Montessori Academy schools in Boise, Eagle, and Meridian. Our program closely follows the philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori, who held that school should be an extension of the home in preparing students to become responsible members of society.
Children receive individualized and group instruction in an atmosphere of cooperation and non-competitiveness. In our elementary grades, students explore mathematics, science, technology, literature, history, economics, anthropology, and the basic organization of human societies. Our well-rounded curriculum includes art, Spanish, music and physical education.

We are part of Spring Education Group, a network of more than 230 private schools providing outstanding education for infants through 12th grade across the U.S., internationally and online. Spring Education Group supports a wide range of schools and educational approaches, strengthening all by sharing our learnings and advancements in educational and operational practices.
Our Montessori preschools are dedicated to providing an excellent academic program based on the Montessori Method. The carefully prepared environment promotes the physical, social, emotional and intellectual development of each child in a warm and nurturing setting. The Montessori approach is one in which careful attention is placed on nurturing the child's innate joy and passion for education.
We believe that when parents and teachers work as partners in a child's education, the learning experience is more meaningful. Our teachers and staff are always there for you to discuss your goals, needs and concerns for your child. We also provide daily, monthly and quarterly written updates so that you are always in the know.
We encourage individualized learning based on the physical, social, emotional and intellectual development of each child. The Montessori multi-age model encourages long-term friendships and allows for continuity of the teacher/student relationship. The Pre-Primary program provides children with many opportunities to explore and experiment.
Our Primary program encourages increased independence and active participation in the learning process. Students use developmentally appropriate Montessori learning materials to aid in the comprehension of math, language, science and geography concepts. Each learning area has materials ranging in complexity from beginning to advanced skills, so that students progress according to individual capabilities and maturity levels.

We enrolled our 3-year old daughter here after visiting the school on multiple occasions the year before for classroom drop-ins, hands-on experiences at special events, and one-on-one time with the administration. We liked what we saw and more importantly, our daughter, who takes time to warm up to situations, was ok with it all.
When we left her for her first day of school, she did not cry and was actually excited. Throughout this first year, she's been positively encouraged in all areas, treated as an individual, and she's expected to treat others just the same. You can tell the teachers and

All about the Benjamins baby...
I was a Montessori teacher for 10 years and I’ve seen, first hand, schools that exist to truly spread peace and love... and the schools that are in it for the money. This is a classic for-profit commercial school banking off the Montessori culture. There are several great schools to choose from in the area, most of which are far less expensive than this one. Don’t give these guys your money... shop around... you’ll be able to spot the genuine easily. Especially after meeting these pias b-holes.

Montessori is a great school with amazing teachers and staff. Every student is coddled and told they are amazing and doing such a great job. No student ever fails at Montessori and success and achievement is everywhere. Then its time to leave and go to public school. Then you find out how far behind your child really is. Private tutors and additional education costs was not something I expected after leaving Montessori. We spent over $50,000 dollars at that school and would have done better at a public school in my opinion.

We have been attending this school since 2008! We LOVE the teachers and staff! Absolutely the best education around. My children are excelling in both education and their love for learning. My kindergartener just started learning division, and finds it fun and easy! My 2 year old preschooler knows, numbers, colors, shapes, and recognizes his written name. We have had a great experience here!!
