Our Story

Mountain Shadows International Montessori School (MSIMS) has been a beacon of exceptional Montessori education in Boulder County for over four decades, grounded in a deep respect for the child and a commitment to educating the whole human being. Our sprawling 7.5-acre ranch campus, nestled in the serene farm mesas of the area, offers children an immersive, nature-rich learning environment where curiosity, independence, and a sense of belonging are cultivated daily. Rooted in authentic Montessori principles and enriched by global perspectives, MSIMS is dedicated to nurturing curious, compassionate thinkers, engaged global citizens, and collaborative problem-solvers, preparing children not only for academic success but for a purposeful, connected life.
