That must have been how the parents of the Montessori School of Fremont (MSF), located in Southern Alameda County, saw things in 1998. They were so pleased with the academic and social development and success of their children at MSF that they wanted Montessori schooling to continue beyond the fourth grade.
Thankfully, a synergy occurred that year. As the owners of MSF began to concretely lay out plans to expand their school to include middle and high schools, they were approached by some parents of their students. A year and nine months later, classes for seventh graders began in the middle school. In 2001, the middle school had an enrollment of 12 students and a staff of two teachers.

Report
How can a small school you have never heard of be a better choice for your child than a large one that you hear about all of the time? Alsion is a small school, with a full time faculty of five highly qualified teachers serving a junior high community of only 48 students. As you might expect from a school with student/teacher ratio 10 to 1, students receive more personal attention than at a larger institution.
Middle School
Report
Alsion Montessori Middle School is a program designed to address the specific needs of the adolescent learner and to help the student become an independent and responsible young adult. Adolescents are in a time of flux intellectually, physically and socially, and their learning environment must reflect this.
Academics
Report
The Alsion Middle School academic environment is interactive, experiential and individualized. Teachers develop detailed study guides for the syllabus at the beginning of a term, outlining key content, assignments, deadlines and exam dates. Working from these lesson overviews, students work individually and in groups.
