2,635 Montessori schools have participated
in the USA Montessori Census so far.
Using the Census
The Montessori Census collects data about Montessori schools (public and private) in the U.S. and around the world. The Census currently has information for 497 public programs and 2,138 private schools in the U.S.
Census users maintain their own information. To list a school, users can create a Census account.
Some schools are not yet managed by a user. Users can check to see if their school is listed and claim a school if it is not yet claimed.
The Census story
The Montessori Census was launched in 2013 as the USA Montessori Census as a collaboration among the National Center for Montessori in the Public Sector (NCMPS), the Center for Research on Developmental Education, and the Montessori organizations listed at the bottom of this page. Funding was provided by the Trust for Learning. NCMPS has taken over the project and continues to maintain and improve data collection and communication.
