Montessori Center School Excellence in Montessori education

08/20/2026

First-day feelings. A little excitement. A little nervousness. Lots of curiosity. New faces, familiar friends, busy hands, and those quiet moments of taking it all in.

Today, our classrooms came alive again as children settled into their environments, found their work, reconnected with friends, and began another year of growing in confidence and independence.

There’s something special about a Montessori first day. We don’t just welcome children back—we welcome them into an environment thoughtfully prepared for them to explore, discover, and find their place.

Here’s to a beautiful year of wonder, connection, and meaningful work. 🩵💙💚

Welcome back, MCS Meerkats! We’re so glad you’re here.

Practical life skills look a little different for the adults. 😂🪓💥
Our staff took team building to a whole new level with axe throwing and a little rage-room destruction! Because even Montessori teachers need to let loose, laugh together and occasionally smash things. 😉

MCS faculty and staff have been busy getting ready for an amazing new school year!

From preparing classrooms and learning environments to team-building activities, our staff has been working hard, learning together and making sure we’re ready to welcome our Meerkats back!

We are SO excited to see our students back on campus next week!

And we can’t wait to welcome all of our current MCS families at our “Welcome Back, Meerkats!” Open House on Wednesday, August 19th, from 9:00 AM–Noon!

Come see your classroom, meet your teachers, reconnect with friends and get ready for another fantastic year at MCS!

Welcome back, Meerkats! We’ve missed you!

🐣💚 It's Baby Season! 💚🐣

We're proud to be the Baby Season Education Lead Sponsor for the Santa Barbara Wildlife Care Network and to support their incredible work caring for injured and orphaned wildlife in our community.

Each spring and summer, thousands of baby birds, mammals, reptiles and other native animals arrive at SBWCN in need of expert care. Beyond rehabilitation, their education programs help our community learn how to safely coexist with local wildlife and understand when (and when not) to intervene if a baby animal is found.

If you'd like to support this lifesaving work or learn more about Baby Season, visit: www.sbwcn.org/baby-season

Together, we can help give our wild neighbors a second chance. 🦉🦝🐿️💚

🎸🎶 Today, our Primary campers had a rockin’ surprise! We welcomed Rick and the Shoe Biters Show to Camp MCS for an interactive musical experience filled with singing, dancing and movement. The Shoe Biters combine high-energy original music with positive lessons about teamwork, confidence and social-emotional learning, making it a hit with children and adults alike. Our campers had a fantastic time moving to the music and joining in the fun! A big thank you to for sharing your music, energy and enthusiasm with our campers today! Check out our Stories for videos from today’s event!🚀🎵
