Passionate Learners
Independent Thinkers
Engaged Citizens

Now enrolling, see the Montessori difference! Montessori at MSSA is an education that is both nurturing and rigorous, respecting each student’s unique pace and style of learning while continually encouraging each child to reach their maximum potential.

Welcome to The Montessori School of San Antonio

Where children are guided to be passionate learners, independent thinkers, and engaged citizens.

The Montessori School of San Antonio was founded as the Judson School – a Montessori Workshop in 1974. From there it has grown to include Primary, Elementary, and Middle School Montessori programs. The MSSA campus is a secure 24-acre parcel at the intersection of Loop 1604 and Rogers Ranch Parkway in far North-Central San Antonio with a surrounding environment designed specifically to meet the learning criteria set out by Dr. Maria Montessori.

As a parent, I can confidently say that I could not have chosen a better community for my children and our family unit. MSSA works hard to maintain a wonderful learning environment where grace and courtesy are always paramount. The education is challenging, yet manageable, and it allows students to have a very subtle transition when moving on to a higher grade-level."

Academics at MSSA

With an active and experiential learning environment, the academic program at The Montessori School of San Antonio lays the foundation for children to become lifelong learners. Smaller class sizes allow for accommodating individual students and their personal learning styles. MSSA values all student’s unique strengths and guides them to become strong community members.

🌿🌸 Over the past few weeks, our Lower Elementary classrooms have revitalized their patio areas. Parents joined their children in planting a variety of flowers, cacti, and herbs, transforming the outdoor space into a vibrant, engaging environment. This greenery not only enhances the areas beauty but also serves as a living classroom, where students learn the importance of nurturing plants and cultivating a love for nature. 🌿🌼🌺#mssa #themontessorischoolofsanantonio #outdoorclassroom

🔙Throwback Thursday!
In honor of this weeks environmental trips, were going all the way back to 1996, when Mr. Peter took the Upper Elementary students to Guadalupe Mountains National Park for 10 days. All campers made their own field guides, slept in tents, and planned and cooked their own meals. Over 10 years, the trip went from 10 days to 8 days, with destinations in West Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado. #mssa #themontessorischoolofsanantonio #outdooreducation

Today, Upper Elementary participated in a whole group activity named No Relief. This activity was a simulation of the challenges refugees face when fleeing natural disasters, war, famine, and other crises in their home countries. The students, with limited information, sought medical care for malnourishment, dehydration, or fatigue, asked for help from FEMA, and endured the frustration of waiting in lines for aid, only to be turned away due to incomplete or incorrect forms, despite their best efforts to adapt to their new reality. #mssa # #themontessorischoolofsanantonio
