Montessori of Brea is a multi-age, multi-graded Primary & Elementary school for Ages 2-12 years. We follow the traditional Montessori system of education where children of mixed ages work together in the classroom doing age-appropriate activities. 

At Montessori of Brea, we pride ourselves as having an unparalleled environment for learning. We have teachers with decades of experience and a school that has been in operation for over 35 years.




The Montessori classroom attracts the child to explore and learn and develop a sense of order and discipline. The multi-age groupings lets the students learn from each other and help one another. It helps the children to develop self-esteem rather than foster competition among each other.

 We pride ourselves with having:

  • Qualified Montessori Teachers
  • Traditional multi-age classrooms
  • Individualized instruction
  • Phonetic Reading & Writing
  • Practical Life & Sensorial activities
  • Math, Geography, Science
  • Foreign Language
  • Dance, Gymnastics, Computers, Art Classes (Optional after school)
  • First Aid & CPR certified staff
  • OPEN YEAR ROUND

 Lessons in Spanish are offered starting at pre-school level and continue through the elementary years. Students acquire a vocabulary of commonly used words and develop those into conversational phrases at the elementary level.

EXTRA CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES:

We offer a variety of fun classes for our after-school program. These are optional classes conducted  on site by outside services. We have Dance classes, Gymnastics, Computer classes, Art classes, as well as Music. We also offer Cooking classes for Primary & Elementary kids.
