Experienced and Trusted Montessori Education Since 1962

The Portland Montessori School nurtures curiosity and guides each child's joyful quest in learning. We recognize the intrinsic motivation in children and support their development. Our classrooms:

  • bring children together, learning in multi-age groups
  • center kindness and gratitude in lessons
  • encourage exploration
  • help children gain confidence and independence
  • introduce them to problem-solving lessons
  • inspire creativity

Additionally, we create a supportive learning environment that contributes to academic readiness and engages children as active learners throughout their education journey. Our toddler, primary, and elementary-aged classrooms make up a diverse group of more than 130 children from 15 months to elementary age.

Classrooms are led by an incredible circle of dedicated, caring, highly trained, and experienced Montessori educators surrounded by a supportive and compassionate team. Our school campus is nestled in a NE Portland neighborhood that includes a dynamic outdoor learning environment that helps connect children to the world around them.
