Montessori Center School

Founded in 1965 and located near Goleta’s foothills convenient to thoroughfares and UCSB, Montessori Center School is one of America’s oldest and largest Montessori schools and part of the internationally acclaimed Montessori educational community. We are an independent school affiliated with the American Montessori Society and licensed by California’s Department of Social Services.
A vibrant community of 300 students and families partnering with faculty and staff, we provide a Montessori education that encourages intellectual, social, physical, creative and moral development, preparing students for academic excellence, confident, lifelong learning and responsible, caring lives.
