Sandia Montessori School is a private, co-ed and nonsectarian school, serving over 100 students in Grades PK-5.

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.
We tailor instructional needs to each individual child in a way that brings out the best in each child by increasing motivation, self esteem, and most importantly real success for life. 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.

Based in Albuquerque NM, the Cottonwood Gulch Foundation provides a wide range of educational wilderness expeditions and outdoor summer programs for kids and teens ages 10-19, as well as Family programs and Adult programs. Our wilderness expeditions take place in the heart of the American Southwest, and promote personal growth, scientific, historic, and cultural discovery as well as a knowledgeable environmental ethic among all those who participate.
Based in New Mexico, our Summer Expeditions range from 2-6 weeks, and are for kids ages 10-19. No expertise is needed to join, just a sense of adventure and a desire to learn about the animals, art, and unique culture of the Southwest.
We have been leading wilderness expeditions in the Southwest since 1926. Our groups visit different ecosystems of the Four Corners states: New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, and Colorado — red rock canyons, high desert mesas and alpine ranges — to play and explore. We explore mostly on foot, backpacking and day-hiking into the back-country, but we also sometimes canoe through river canyons.
