Established as a California LLC in February 2022, Casa de Alicia Montessori delivers a bilingual Spanish-English Montessori curriculum for children ages two through five at 1683 Catalina Boulevard. The school adds a home-based Montessori option to the 92107 preschool corridor that includes Saint Peters by the Sea Pre-School's play-based program. Prepared-environment classrooms stock Montessori-standard sensorial, language, and math materials that children select during uninterrupted three-hour work cycles. Social-emotional growth and independence receive equal emphasis, with grace-and-courtesy lessons built into each rotation—skills that carry forward into the elementary-level curriculum at Pioneer Day School. The most demanding work plans introduce early cultural geography and botany units, extending the Montessori scope beyond the core pre-reading and pre-math strands typical of conventional preschool programs.
