I cherish my time at Brush Creek and appreciate how unique the learning experience was. It inspired me to ask questions, invest time in topics that interested me, and develop a passion for knowledge. Each classroom has a strong Montessori foundation, encouraging students to work through problems, help others, and be aware of their environment.

History
Report
Brush Creek Montessori School has been a leading voice in Montessori education in Sonoma County for more than 40 years. It is an American Montessori Society member school. Wes and Peggy Colgan founded the school in 1973. The school was initially just an elementary school, then as the preschool was added, the name became Montessori Elementary and Preschool.
Elementary
Report
At around age six, a change occurs in the child that gives us a key to the elementary years. The child develops the mental power to visualize and explore. We call this the ability to abstract. This new ability opens vast new arenas for learning. The elementary child is able to learn about anything that can be held in the intellect, including the entire world and the universe.
Primary
Report
Montessori Primary provides a three-year program of child development. It is individualized because no two children grow in exactly the same way. The classrooms are led by trained "Guides"(Head Teachers) with one or more Assistant teachers. The sensorial materials enable the Primary child to clarify, classify, and comprehend his/her world.
Toddlers
Report
Our Toddler Program introduces children to a Montessori environment specifically created to nurture the individual at the tender age from 18 months to 2 years. In this prepared environment, children access experiential learning materials that leave concrete impressions and create a foundation for the development of language, mathematics, and cultural awareness.
