Exciting News from Dahlia Elementary.

We Have a New Home!

Our community has continued to grow in beautiful ways: deeper connections, stronger programs, and children becoming the curious, bilingual, self-directed learners we always believed they could be.

We are excited to share this next chapter with you: The Dahlia School of San Francisco Elementary now has its own dedicated website.

At our elementary campus, children study both broadly and deeply, exploring many subjects not typically attempted in conventional schools. Because there is no rigid schedule or prescribed curriculum that the whole class must follow, each child has the opportunity to focus intensely on meaningful, self-chosen work with minimal interruption.

At the same time, children collaborate closely with their guides to ensure that their work is challenging, purposeful, and aligned with essential standards. In this way, the teacher helps guide the minimum scope of work, while the child is invited to reach toward their maximum potential.

Visit www.dahliasfmontessori.org to explore our Montessori elementary program, meet our guides, learn about admissions and tuition, view upcoming events, and discover more about our growing school community.

We have both of our kids in Dahlia: our older child is in Elementary, while our younger one is in Primary. First of all, Montessori is the way to go... no doubt. These kids are independent, articulate, expressive, considerate, artistic, and just overall great kids. I am not just talking about our kids, pretty much all of the kids in the school exhibit these traits.
