Escuela del Sol Montessori, an independent not-for-profit school, provides the best educational conditions to engage and nurture every child's innate passion to learn. With its local roots (50 years in Albuquerque) and global view, Escuela is uniquely positioned to guide our youngest citizens. We work in partnership with families and the community at large to give children an excellent education and the ability to live responsibly in a new age. Guided by the proven teaching methods of Maria Montessori, our students go beyond traditional academic success to develop global awareness, social responsibility and purpose.
