For over 40 years, CVMS has provided exceptional Preschool and Kindergarten to children 2-6 years of age. Located in downtown Cedar Rapids - Sign up for our waiting list as early as birth.
Cedar Valley Montessori School was founded in 1971 by a group of Cedar Rapids parents seeking a high-quality preschool education for their children. The school continues to operate today with a strong core of active and engaged families.
Starting with 10 children in the basement of the school building in the Immaculate Conception Church in southeast Cedar Rapids, CVMS has steadily grown to its current size of more than 125 students.
Our mission is to remain consistent with what Dr. Maria Montessori said, did, and wrote to create a high quality individualized early education experience for children ages two through six which will allow children to progress at their own rate along their developmental path.
