We offer fun and specialized programs for infants, preschoolers, and kindergarteners.
Oak Grove is dedicated to providing the highest quality care for each child in a loving, nurturing, and stimulating academic environment.
Maria Montessori developed a specialized curriculum that provides children with first-person tactile experiences allowing children to learn for themselves in a warmly guided setting. Teachers are trained in the nuanced specifics regarding the content of materials and the purpose of each activity. The children are engaged with endless fun learning opportunities to fill their days having fun learning.
Recognizing individual strengths and areas of opportunity, Oak Grove Montessori School in Oakland establishes goals to help each child develop into an independent, self-motivated, confident child who exhibits compassion and caring towards others and steadily builds their academic foundation that will be the basis of their educational careers. Each child is directed towards the materials that are right at the child’s skill level to provide challenges and accomplishments designed to inspire the love of learning.
A range of extra-curricular enrichment activities will be offered at our Montessori school in Oakland to all children in preschool and Kindergarten as soon as we are able to do so. Our built-in curriculum includes weekly Spanish classes for each child.

Each day at school builds on the day before it, providing challenges that are appropriate to both age and skill level.

“The child has a different relation to his environment from ours. Adults admire their
environment, they can remember it and think about it, but the child absorbs it. The things he sees are not just remembered; they form part of his soul. This is a vital kind of memory, which one does not consciously remember, but absorbs images into the individual’s very life.”
