Passionate Learners
Independent Thinkers
Engaged Citizens

Now accepting applications for the 2025-2026 school year. Montessori at MSSA is an education that is both nurturing and rigorous, respecting each student's unique pace and style of learning while continually encouraging each child to reach their maximum potential.

Welcome to The Montessori School of San Antonio

Where children are guided to be passionate learners, independent thinkers, and engaged citizens.

The Montessori School of San Antonio was founded as the Judson School – a Montessori Workshop in 1974. From there it has grown to include Primary, Elementary, and Middle School Montessori programs. The MSSA campus is a secure 24-acre parcel at the intersection of Loop 1604 and Rogers Ranch Parkway in far North-Central San Antonio with a surrounding environment designed specifically to meet the learning criteria set out by Dr. Maria Montessori.

As a parent, I can confidently say that I could not have chosen a better community for my children and our family unit. MSSA works hard to maintain a wonderful learning environment where grace and courtesy are always paramount. The education is challenging, yet manageable, and it allows students to have a very subtle transition when moving on to a higher grade-level."

Academics at MSSA

With an active and experiential learning environment, the academic program at The Montessori School of San Antonio lays the foundation for children to become lifelong learners. Smaller class sizes allow for accommodating individual students and their personal learning styles. MSSA values all student’s unique strengths and guides them to become strong community members.

🔙Throwback Thursday!
✈️ As the middle schoolers prepare for their upcoming MMUN trip to New York this February, lets take a moment to reflect on the 2017 trip to Hangzhou, China, where both 7th and 8th graders attended the conference. With a group of 80 travelers, including delegates, chaperones, and parents, it was an unforgettable experience. 💙💚 #themontessorischoolofsanantonio #MSSA #mmun

☕Ms. Pranitas students truly impressed everyone at yesterdays Parent Coffee! The group led us through a calming morning meditation and affirmation session, followed by a thoughtful discussion about the mood meter and how they strive to stay in the green zone while working. 💚 They demonstrated a strong understanding that its normal to sometimes be outside the green zone, and they shared practical strategies for getting back on track. It was an enlightening and educational experience for all. #mssa #themontessorischoolofsanantonio #moodmeter #emotionalintelligence
