Welcome to Rainbow Montessori Child Development Center

A Brief History

Founded in 1976, Rainbow Montessori began on a small school site in Campbell. Operations expanded over the years to include six more small school sites located across the South Bay Area. In the mid-80's, those seven small schools were consolidated into three larger schools, which were eventually consolidated into the current site, located on the former campus of Sunnyvale High School.

Our School Today

Our current site affords us the space to provide care and education for over 400 children, ranging in age from six weeks to fifth grade. The Montessori philosophy is utilized in all infant, toddler, preschool, kindergarten, and elementary programs.

Dear Parents,

Thank you for your patience and loyalty, as we weather the storm that was 2022. Much like the year before, It’s been a turbulent one, with a lot of changes. Fortunately, this year the changes have been more good than bad, and we have made some very positive steps forward. Our outlook for the new year is an optimistic one, and I foresee a lot more positive change yet to come. As the year draws to a close, there is still a lot to do, and we are currently in flux and attempting to reach normalization going into the new year.

Because of this, it has been decided that attempting to put together holiday/winter programs will be a difficult task this year. With that in mind, there will be no official holiday/winter programs scheduled for any department. We are encouraging our teachers to have in-class holiday activities, and you may be invited to participate. We hope to resume regular programs next year. Please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have.
