Montessori in Redlands This is the official page for MIR. LIC # 360910803-4-5 TAX ID # 95-3036995 Our students and staff come from many different countries and many walks of life.

Founded in 1976, Montessori in Redlands is a private, nonprofit Montessori school where children begin a life journey of self-realization, love of learning, & global responsibility. We were founded in 1976 by parents who wanted a school that would respect and encourage each child’s inherent curiosity, abilities, and interests. We firmly believe in protecting and nurturing children's natural gifts while giving them a solid academic foundation. MIR is a non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation funded by tuition, fees, donations, and grants. We follow the Montessori tradition of fostering ethnic, economic, and intellectual diversity. The school is a true community where everyone is part of an extended "family" that cares deeply for one another and for the broader community.

Our Upper Elementary camping trips have officially wrapped up for the year! But what makes these trips such an important part of the Montessori experience?

For students ages 9–12, planning a camping trip offers an opportunity to step beyond the classroom, take on real responsibilities, work together, and discover what they’re capable of.

In this video, one of our Upper Elementary guides shares more about the purpose behind these trips and why experiences like these are such an important part of fostering independence.

A few days outside the familiar can lead to growth that students carry with them long after they return home. ✨

MIR Through the Years: A Throwback Thursday Series ✨

For decades, our community has come together to invest in the people, places, and problems that make Montessori in Redlands possible.

As we celebrate 50 years, we’re continuing that tradition with the launch of iGive, a campaign drive to support the 2026-27 Annual Fund!

We invite you to give this October and help carry MIR into the next 50 years. 💛

A golden start to the school year! ✨💛

This year’s Back to School Night brought families together for class orientations and a chance to connect with their child's community. We also added a little extra 50th-anniversary sparkle with a walk-through timeline installation, celebrating five decades of MIR history.

And those beautiful golden cranes? Our Elementary summer school students folded them, and community members lovingly strung them into more than 25 strands, a perfect symbol of the care and connection that make MIR so special.

For five decades, first days have brought new faces, familiar smiles, curious minds, and countless moments of learning and discovery. Today, we add another first day to our story and begin the next chapter together. 💛
