Our Mission
Our mission is to nurture students’ character, compassion, respect and curiosity; to cultivate their means to learn, to invent, and participate fully and joyfully in life independently and collaboratively; to establish and sustain a quality Montessori holistic elementary and middle school program that encourages students to develop a deep sense of interdependence and responsibility as caring, global citizens and stewards of the earth.

6th Annual Upper Elementary Birdathon Success!
Six Rivers Montessori Upper Elementary held its 6th annual Upper Elementary BIRDATHON on Thursday, May 7th, 2020. This year was a little different as we are all in “Shelter in Place,” but over the course of the day students recorded 94 species! Click here for the full list. Our goal was to raise $5000 for new Orff instruments for Teresa’s amazing music program.
You can still donate via our paypal link to get us to our goal. With your help, we’re one step closer!
