Sandia Montessori School is a private, co-ed and nonsectarian school, serving over 100 students in Grades PK-5. We are located in Albuquerque, Bernalillo County and serve families in Conchas Park, Chelwood Park, Hoffmantown and neighbouring communities. We have been providing a personalized, complete, quality education at this location for over ten years. Our school, Sandia Montessori, prepares toddlers, pre-k children, and elementary school kids with more than the simple skills needed to survive their next challenge.

The results are consistent with Montessori: children learn better, perform higher on tests, communicate and cooperate better, and become independent learners - skills that put them on the right track.
