Springfield Montessori School’s Dublin Campus to Open in May 2010
Springfield Montessori School will be opening its new campus in Dublin, CA, May 2010. The Dublin campus is located at 5100 Brannigan Street, in Dublin Ranch, with easy access to and from I-580 and I-680. In close proximity to both Fallon Middle School and John Green Elementary School, this new campus has been designed to replicate Springfield Montessori’s award-winning architectural design in Walnut Creek, CA. The programs, curriculum, and operating model will be patterned after the highly successful and well respected Walnut Creek campus.
Springfield Montessori School subscribes to the Montessori Teaching Philosophy. Developed by Dr. Maria Montessori (1870-1952), this philosophy emphasizes and promotes excellence in Early Childhood Education by creating a culture that is conducive to learning, helping students develop physical and mental order as well as “Inner Discipline,” providing an environment and materials that will meet the multifaceted developmental needs of the students, and teaching students to help themselves through the processes of independence, responsibility, socialization, grace, and courtesy.
Springfield Montessori owes much of its reputation to the dedication of its highly motivated teaching staff. Springfield Montessori teachers are well trained in the Montessori Philosophy and possess thorough knowledge of the various stages in a young child’s social, cognitive, physical, and physiological development.
Parental involvement is key to the success of a Montessori program. In order for the child to experience a consistent learning structure, parents must be in sync with the Montessori Philosophy in order to maintain continuity between the school and the home. Parent-teacher conferences are regularly scheduled to ensure that all concerns are addressed and that parents are aware of the child’s progress. Parents are encouraged to discuss their concerns whenever the need arises.
Springfield Montessori is a member of the Professional Association for Childhood Education (PACE). Members of this institution are required to maintain the highest standard of childcare and early childhood education. The new Dublin campus will have a capacity of 180 students and will offer academic programs for Toddler, Preschool, and Kindergarten students between the ages of 2 to 6. Enrollment is currently open for the Dublin Campus. Parents may call (925)944-0626 or email

Dublin was selected as the location for our second campus because the area demographics supported our model
