Our Mission

To advance quality Montessori education for all California children.

What we do

CMA works to unify and uplift our voices as Montessori schools and Teacher Education Programs so we can advocate for the inclusion of Montessori in public and private spaces in California.

We focus on partnering with regional agencies to advocate for creating pathways for state-level recognition of Montessori education. We support the work of those who advocate for teacher licensure recognition, those implementing TK programs, and agencies that validate schools. We also work to ensure California has the opportunity to provide quality Montessori education across our state.

We gather together as Montessorians to increase our knowledge as lifelong learners.
