Parent Testimonials“All our handling of the child will bear fruit, not only at the moment, but in the adult they are destined to become.”
– Maria Montessori
At Montessori on Copperhill in Santa Clarita, we believe that excellence is a habit. Our passion for education shows in each child’s joyful eyes, in each teacher’s inspiring voice, and in each classroom’s inviting warmth. Visit us today to see how the Montessori Method will inspire you.
Our mission is to use the Montessori method to create an ordered, stable environment wherein children have the space to develop at their own pace — to be equipped with the knowledge, thinking skills, and strength of character required to flourish as joyous children today and as self-actualized adults tomorrow.
Our Curriculum
Montessori on Copperhill provides a high-quality learning environment for children under six. Our space welcomes the whole family, allowing each parent, teacher, and child to live to their fullest potential at home and in the community.
INFANTS
We create spaces where babies can explore and feel secure. Teachers speak in gentle tones, the daily pace is unhurried, and décor is peaceful and homelike. Each child in our care is an individual to be nurtured with affection and respect. As is customary for Montessori environments, every detail is selected with the child’s whole development in mind.
TODDLERS
Brain development is an integral part of the Montessori program. Toddlers can learn to concentrate and focus on a task. The environment is filled with learning activities that are developmentally appropriate for toddlers. They are free to choose activities according to his/her own interests. It is our goal to meet each child’s needs and develop these skills.
PRE-SCHOOL
As your child grows and begins to master some of the basic life and communication skills, our pre-school program will help your child develop the skills that they began to experience in our toddler room.
They will be encouraged to learn and master, fine motor skills and problem solving. We enhance the learning experience while making the process fun and entertaining.
KINDERGARTEN
Our kindergarten program provides our students with a strong foundation. The children will begin to form bonds and relationships with other children and learn to problem solve in a group setting.
The Montessori Method is very much alive as our children learn in a fun and creative way.
Montessori on CopperHill provides an educational setting that supports child-centered learning in a peaceful, authentic Montessori environment. To create a community of parents, children, and teachers that supports the needs of the family, is sensitive to developmental milestones and embraces the love of life-long learning.
Montessori education offers our children opportunities to develop their potential as they step out into the world as engaged, competent, responsible, and respectful citizens with an understanding and appreciation that learning is for life. Each child is valued as a unique individual. Montessori education recognizes that children learn in different ways, and accommodates all learning styles. Students are also free to learn at their own pace, each advancing through the curriculum as he is ready, guided by the teacher and an individualized learning plan.
Montessori students develop order, coordination, concentration, and independence. Classroom design, materials, and daily routines support the individual’s emerging “self-regulation” (ability to educate one’s self, and to think about what one is learning), toddlers through kindergarten. Students are part of a close, caring community. The multi-age classroom—typically spanning 3 years—re-creates a family structure. Older students enjoy stature as mentors and role models; younger children feel supported and gain confidence about the challenges ahead.
Teachers model respect, loving kindness, and a belief in peaceful conflict resolution. Montessori students enjoy freedom within limits. Working within parameters set by their teachers, students are active participants in deciding what their focus of learning will be. Montessorians understand that internal satisfaction drives the child’s curiosity and interest and results in joyous learning that is sustainable over a lifetime. Students are supported in becoming active seekers of knowledge.
Teachers provide environments where students have the freedom and the tools to pursue answers to their own questions. Self-correction and self-assessment are an integral part of the Montessori classroom approach. As they mature, students learn to look critically at their work, and become adept at recognizing, correcting, and learning from their errors.

Montessori on CopperHill provides an environment specifically suited to your child’s development, practicing principles that align with the most important family values of equity, unconditional love, and peace. These years create a foundation for life.

My daughter started going here in the fall, when she was 2. We were quite nervous because she had never attended any sort of daycare/preschool before. The staff/teachers have been so great with her! My daughter has adjusted beautifully and we love the Montessori style. She especially loves her circle time, “work” time, outdoor play time, and music time. I highly recommend this school.
