CALIFORNIA MONTESSORI PROJECT-SAN JUAN CAMPUS

California Montessori Project-San Juan Campus is a public charter elementary school that is part of the San Juan Unified school district, located in Carmichael, CA with about 1,318 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 8th Grade. Student demographics can be found below. With about 60 teachers, California Montessori Project-San Juan Campus has a student/teacher ratio of about 21:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

The California Montessori Project (CMP) - San Juan Campus is a tuition-free public charter school located in Carmichael, California, serving students from transitional kindergarten through eighth grade. As part of a larger network of Montessori schools, the campus is dedicated to the pedagogical philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori, which emphasizes self-directed learning, collaborative play, and the development of both academic and social-emotional independence. The school environment is carefully prepared to encourage students to progress at their own pace, fostering a lifelong love of learning within a structured yet flexible framework.

In addition to its Montessori-based curriculum, the San Juan campus prioritizes the cultivation of a supportive community that involves parents, teachers, and students in the educational process. The school aims to prepare children for future success by balancing rigorous core academics with character development and the promotion of global citizenship. By focusing on the "whole child," CMP San Juan seeks to provide a well-rounded educational experience that goes beyond standardized testing to help each student reach their full potential in an inclusive, multi-age classroom setting.
