Our Teachers

Our teachers are more than guides—they are mentors, nurturers, and highly trained professionals. Many hold advanced degrees or Montessori certifications, and all are deeply committed to the success of each individual child.

Testimonials

Wonderful experience at this school. We had our LO attend and all we have are wonderful things to say. The teachers are phenomenal and our LO still misses them so much. They have so many opportunities for parents to come in to volunteer (and even grandparents). Field trips are so thoughtfully organized, relates to what the monthly themes are and very hands-on. Nature walks and enrichment programs are top-notch. They taught my LO both Spanish and Mandarin, and he is now excelling in after school language class in his elementary school. We feel so lucky to have had our LO attend BMS for the two years she was there. - Lily

Philosophy

At North Hills Montessori Academy, our program style is deeply rooted in the Montessori philosophy, focusing on the most transformative early years of a child’s life, ages 2 through 5. We emphasize fostering identity, independence, and intelligence during this critical window by blending proven Montessori pedagogy with warmth, structure, and intention.

At our school, we offer a child-centered, nurturing environment where children are guided to become confident, capable learners equipped with the skills and values to thrive in an ever-changing world.

Location

Our school is nestled in San Francisco’s welcoming Outer Richmond neighborhood on Clement Street, a charming, tree-lined corridor known for its friendly community and local shops. Conveniently situated at 2042 Clement St, we’re just a short walk from neighborhood parks and the Richmond District Library, with easy access to public transit and major routes for parents commuting from the South or East Bay. This peaceful, family-friendly location offers the perfect balance of city convenience and a calm, supportive environment where children can thrive and explore.

About our program

At North Hills Montessori Academy for Gifted Learners in San Francisco, young minds thrive through holistic development. Our warm, thoughtfully designed Montessori preschool was created for families who value whole-child development and a high academics. We combine hands-on academics with social-emotional growth, leadership, and enriching experiences that cultivate curiosity, confidence, and character.

We believe early education should lay the foundation for a love of learning, meaningful relationships, and a strong sense of self-worth.
