About this preschool

Sundrops Montessori School is an authentic Montessori micro-school in San Jose, California, serving children ages 3 to 6 years old as part of the Wildflower Network. The school emphasizes child-led learning in a prepared environment with multiage classrooms and intentionally small community partnerships.

Philosophy
The Montessori Method emerges from the belief that children are naturally good, peaceful and curious and that in the context of a supportive environment, all children engage instinctively in the work of self-construction. With appropriate freedoms and the right support, children follow their interests to create rich learning experiences, form peaceful communities, and support and learn from one another.
