The Best Inquiry based education in Chula Vista, California

Montessori Hills Academy is a school located at 612 Paseo del Rey in Chula Vista, California, United States. Our institution follows the Montessori Method, where the classroom is a space for children to develop autonomy in a child-led atmosphere. Our teachers act as guides, providing specialized didactic materials tailored to each child's developmental level. We implement Dr. Montessori’s “planes of development” in mixed-age classrooms for children aged 2.5-6 years old. This approach allows children to progress at their own pace in various areas, with teachers guiding them to the next stage of the curriculum when they are ready. Mixed-age groups offer numerous benefits, including improved academic outcomes, emotional well-being, social skill development, stability, self-confidence, and real-world experiences.
