Investment
Education at Central Coast Montessori involves a commitment to investment, and we are sincerely grateful to all who consider joining us on this educational journey.
We work diligently to ensure that our fees align with the high-quality education and engaging environments we offer, while also remaining competitive with similar offerings. Additionally, we warmly welcome any extra contributions from families who are able to provide them, as these resources enhance our community and opportunities for all students.
