Welcome
Our Story
As part of one of the oldest and most reputable family of Montessori schools in Greater North Austin, Cedar Park Montessori School has served the communities of Northwest Austin, Cedar Park, Leander, Georgetown, Round Rock and Pflugerville for twenty years. Other member schools include the renowned Sapientia Montessori School (since 2008) and Pflugerville Montessori (since 1987), both of which have distinguished themselves educationally and in the broader community. Consequently, we are a leading choice for Montessori, advanced preschool and elementary education. Our community brings into the Montessori classroom directors and lead teachers who are Montessori-certified and professionals of the highest academic and personal caliber.
Why Montessori?
The Montessori Method of Education is a scientifically-demonstrated and globally-recognized educational philosophy that underscores the comprehensive development of children — physically, socially, emotionally and academically — thereby nurturing their full potential. Montessori education is customized according to the needs and development of each child, thereby creating a peaceful and rewarding experience that elicits a love for learning. Participating in multi-aged classrooms develops a strong sense of accountability, respect and leadership in the children. As a result, their character formation is grounded in contentment, self-motivation and natural self-confidence. Such a centered disposition facilitates easeful learning and academic excellence.

Programs
Toddlers
'I AM AN EXPLORER'
Program Options: 12:00 pm / 5:30 pm
It’s during these early formative years of a child’s development that intelligence, cultural awareness and language skills are defined. Here the foundations of social patterns, personality and spiritual life are formed. Our toddler community is a natural extension to the child’s home environment — where life’s key concepts, joy, comfort are safely explored. Our toddlers experience an even transition into Primary.
Primary
'HELP ME DO IT MYSELF'
Program Options: 12:00 pm / 3:00 pm / 5:30 pm
Children in our primary program engage in a comprehensive, three-year curriculum, spanning concrete tasks to the mastery of abstract concepts. It provides children with a solid grounding in core subjects which recur over future learning years, such as: Mathematics, language, geography, science/botany/zoology, art, music, culture and social studies, among others.
Elementary
'HELP ME UNDERSTAND WHY?'
Program Options: 3:00 pm / 5:30 pm
Our advanced elementary curriculum, while complying with State standards, includes all the core subjects in addition to many specialized areas. The Montessori approach recognizes that Elementary-aged children need creative outlets for their inquisitive minds, fertile imaginations, and natural aptitude for discovery. Our program responds accordingly to this natural curiosity, with significant focus on nature and society.
