From wide open spaces to wander, animals to observe, and endless opportunities for curiosity to lead the way.

Teacher Appreciation Week, May 4th–8th, gave our families a chance to say thank you in a real and tangible way. Each day, children arrived with flowers, handmade cards, and

There is something remarkable that happens in a child’s second year of Primary (TK)/Pre-K at MSOSV. It’s not always visible at first, but once you know what to look for, you can see it in everything: how they carry themselves in the classroom, how they approach their work, how they interact with the children around them. The first year of Primary is rich with discovery. Children are meeting Montessori materials for the first time, learning the rhythms of the classroom, building independence through practical life work, and developing their sensorial awareness.

Every skill, every moment of focused work, every challenge they pushed through over the past three years is now visible in what they are creating and doing right now. This is the season where it all comes together, and it is remarkable to witness. The Button Tree One of the most meaningful projects our Kindergarteners complete this spring is their button tree. This is not a simple craft. Creating a

Our Kindergarten students enjoyed a wonderful spring adventure during their field trip to Hidden Villa Farms in Los Altos Hills. The day was filled with laughter, curiosity, and hands-on discovery as the children explored the farm, met animals up close, and learned where food comes from. Guided by their teachers, students observed the natural connections between plants, animals, and people. From brushing goats to planting seeds, each activity brought the Montessori principles of observation, independence, and respect for the environment to life. Field trips like this give our children meaningful opportunities to

On Saturday, March 28th, our Peak Ave Montessori campus will host a Spring Community Egg Hunt, open to anyone in the Morgan Hill area. Community is one of MSOSV’s core values. The Morgan Hill neighborhood is part of what makes this campus what it is. An event like this is one way we acknowledge that relationship directly. For many visitors, Saturday will be their first time on a Montessori campus. That matters to us. Our prepared environment, our approach to child-led learning, and the way our guides work with children are things

Throughout the day, our Kindergarteners observed and learned about farm animals, explored garden spaces while discussing how fruits and vegetables grow, and walked through orchard areas where they talked about plant life cycles.
