E-mailThe Redwoods International Montessori (TRIMONT) has officially opened Fall 2026 enrollment at its two Bay Area campuses, located in Redwood City and San Ramon. The announcement signals the start of the enrollment season for families seeking an authentic Montessori education for children between the ages of 18 months and 6 years, backed by more than three decades of continuous operation serving Silicon Valley communities.
Two Campuses, One Consistent Standard
Bay Area families now have access to two established campus locations - one functioning as a Montessori preschool in Redwood City and the other as a Montessori school in San Ramon. Both campuses operate under a shared educational philosophy and consistent staffing standards, providing parents with assurance that the experience their child receives reflects a unified approach to early childhood development across both sites.
Central to that approach is a teaching staff composed of AMI-certified educators - professionals trained and credentialed through the Association Montessori Internationale, the organization founded by Dr. Maria Montessori. This certification standard sets TRIMONT apart from programs that incorporate Montessori-inspired elements without the formal training infrastructure that defines authentic Montessori practice.
A Curriculum Built Around the Whole Child
TRIMONT's program extends beyond conventional early childhood academics. Children enrolled at either campus participate in daily Spanish language instruction and weekly world cultures programming - a structured sequence that introduces students to languages, customs, and perspectives from around the globe. This international dimension reflects the school's founding identity as an institution designed for the globally connected families that have long characterized the Silicon Valley region.
Classrooms at both locations are structured around a 1:10 teacher-to-student ratio, enabling educators to apply Montessori's individualized approach in practice rather than in principle alone. In an authentic Montessori environment, that ratio is significant - children advance at their own pace while teachers function as guides who observe and respond to each child's developmental stage, rather than delivering uniform instruction to a large group.
The program enrolls children from 18 months through age 6, spanning the early childhood window that Montessori research identifies as foundational for cognitive, social, and emotional development.
More Than 30 Years Serving Bay Area Families
The opening of Fall 2026 enrollment coincides with TRIMONT marking more than 30 years of uninterrupted operation in the Bay Area. That tenure reflects a measurable pattern in a region where families have a broad range of options: parents have consistently chosen TRIMONT across generations, and a number of alumni families have since enrolled their own children in the same program they once attended.
For Silicon Valley parents evaluating early childhood programs - ranging from play-based models to academically intensive curricula - TRIMONT occupies a defined position. The combination of AMI certification, an international curriculum, and an established institutional history positions both the Montessori preschool Redwood City campus and the Montessori school San Ramon campus as options for families seeking structured, research-grounded early education alongside the child-centered flexibility that characterizes the Montessori method.
How to Enroll for Fall 2026
With Fall 2026 enrollment now open at both locations, TRIMONT encourages interested families to begin the process early, as classroom seats at each campus are limited by the school's commitment to maintaining its teacher-to-student ratio.
