Chesterfield Montessori School

This school has been claimed by the school or a school representative.

CMS has been educating global innovators since 1981 through hands-on, experiential, evidence-based learning for children from 16 months through sixth grade. We contribute to global peace by partnering with families from St. Louis and around the world to realize the unique potential of each child. We are the only area school recognized by Association Montessori Internationale (AMI) and also accredited by the Independent Schools Association of the Central States.

Our facility is on five acres in the suburb of Chesterfield, MO. Our campus includes tennis and basketball courts, playgrounds, and a children’s garden. We also have a prairie restoration project populated by native plants, butterflies and birds, where children regularly take nature walks.

The classrooms are open, inviting, and fully equipped with the materials developed by Dr. Maria Montessori. Families share the richness of their cultures with our community. Our teachers have completed rigorous AMI training.
