JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

Montessori Peaks Academy (MPA) is a Colorado public charter school and tuition-based preschool located in Littleton, Colorado in the Jefferson County school district. Opening its doors in September 1997, MPA was Jeffco's first Montessori charter school. Our philosophy and methodology is based on Maria Montessori's belief in the education of the whole child, honoring each child, and preparing them to be life-long learners and responsible world citizens. MPA strives to be an educational journey, preparing each child to uniquely contribute to our shared community. This not only includes cognitive and academic development, but also the emotional, physical, and social development of the child. The value placed on outdoor education at MPA can be seen throughout its 8.5 acres of land which features multiple gardens, a natural watershed, a bee habitat and pollinator space, as well as many other opportunities for children to grow and learn outdoors.
