Profitable Montessori-Future of Early Childhood Ed
$ 649,000
CF : $ 108,000
Having envisioned improving Montessori education by addressing the significant lack of modern and authentic preschool options in the Greater Los Angeles area through acquisitions, the Sellers initially purchased four schools. This school was the first authentic Montessori in its city. It had an extensive history but required improvement. After the acquisitions, significant improvements were made. The school was modernized, operational systems improved, and facilities enhanced. They also brought them up to current Montessori AMI certification and ensured classes were led by certified Montessori teachers, a core academy philosophy. The approach was successful. Enrollment increased, and the Montessori institution is authentic and now known for providing the highest quality Montessori pedagogy in the County. Currently, 47 children, ages 2 through 7, are enrolled. More than 90% of students attend 5-day programs for toddlers (including potty training programs), preschool (those aged 2 to 5 years), and Kindergarten to First Grade (for those ages 5 to 7 years), along with enrichment programs. The school is licensed for up to 102 children. As of January 2026, enrollment is expected to increase following licensing approval for 24 additional toddler spots. The operation employs 8 staff. The longtime director, personally trained by Mario Montessori, oversees two lead teachers and three assistant teachers. NDA is required to secure the comprehensive Confidential Information Memorandum (CIM) crafted by ProNova Partners.
