CMS is a thriving community of families and educators. We offer an enriched and nurturing educational experience for children aged 15 months to 12 years.
Corvallis Montessori School is located in the delightful Willamette Valley. It is only an hour from the Pacific coast, two hours from skiing and an hour and a half to the Portland metro area. Corvallis, with Oregon State University and a thriving downtown, has a population of 54,462 and maintains a small town feeling while providing “bigger city” amenities. The city is known for green power, parks, extensive bicycle paths, a large aquatic center, high-use libraries, and a vibrant arts community.
Our school reflects the ideas of Dr. Maria Montessori, an Italian physician born in the 19th Century who formulated an educational philosophy based on her observations about child development. The educational approach that is in practice at CMS is time-tested, backed by scientific study and respected around the world.
The mission of the Corvallis Montessori School is to educate children to their fullest potential in a supportive and nurturing environment. We strive to help children develop and maintain their innate love of learning and to make education a joyful lifelong process.
