A high quality Montessori preschool on El Paso’s west side. Nurturing hearts and minds since 2007.
A curated environment to foster joyful discovery
Toddlers
As our students enter the toddler classroom, our guides foster the toddler’s natural drive to act independently. They will have the opportunity to use materials that support gross and fine motor skills. Children will be surrounded with child-sized furniture, utensils, and other tools that enable them to make independent choices and complete activities, which builds self-confidence, concentration, and critical thinking skills.
Children’s House
Our 3-6 year old children’s community encourages preschoolers to explore and discover, to collaborate with classmates, and to take ownership of their education. The Montessori Method encourages self-directed learning that promotes self-confidence, independent thought and action, and critical thinking, while fostering social-emotional and intellectual growth. Rather than simply filling children with facts, our guides strive to nurture each child’s natural desire for knowledge, understanding, and respect.
Playground Renovation Project 2023!
We are reaching out to you with exciting news from St. Francis Montessori School!
We're thrilled to announce our Playground Renovation Project, aimed at creating a safer, more inclusive, and inspiring space for our students. We envision a revitalized area that sparks joy, creativity, and countless memories.
At St. Francis, we believe in providing our students with an environment that fosters not just academic growth but also holistic development. Our playground is not just a place for play; it's a space where imaginations soar, friendships bloom, and important life skills are honed. It's the heart of our school, and it's time for a transformation.
