Welcome!
Welcome letter from Stacy Cataldo, CVMS Administrator
Whoever touches the life of the child touches the most sensitive part of a whole which has roots in the most distant past and climbs toward the infinite future.
~ Dr. Maria Montessori (1870-1952)
Cedar Valley Montessori School (CVMS) is a private, non-profit, non-denominational school serving families of 2 to 6 year olds in the greater Cedar Rapids, Iowa area.
Since 1971, CVMS has offered Cedar Rapids’ only true, five-day-a-week Montessori environment. Each child is allowed to follow their own interests, at their own pace with the personalized guidance of our exceptional, Montessori-certified, teachers.
This bright and exciting environment helps to capture their attention and initiates the process of learning, preparing them to succeed in school and in life.
