Before you enroll

Choosing a Montessori school in Dallas

  1. 1

    Ask about credentials

    Ask whether lead teachers hold a Montessori credential, and from which training center.

  2. 2

    Watch a work period

    A Montessori room has a long, quiet work period with children choosing materials. Ask to observe one.

  3. 3

    Check the license

    Listings show the Texas license and the state's inspection record where we hold them; a listing with no license record matched says so.

  4. 4

    Ask about cost and hours

    Many Montessori programs run half days. Ask about full-day and extended-day options and fees.

Questions

How many Montessori schools are in Dallas?

26 Montessori schools and programs are listed in Dallas, by name or by their own description.

What is the difference between Montessori and daycare?

A Montessori school follows Maria Montessori's method: mixed-age rooms, hands-on materials and long blocks of time where children choose their work. A daycare may follow any approach. Many Montessori schools are licensed as child care, and some run full days for working parents.

How much does Montessori preschool cost?

Montessori programs that post their tuition charge a median of $280 a week for full-time preschool across the US (247 programs, 2026). Half-day programs cost less; ask each school.

Is every school called Montessori the same?

No. The word Montessori is not protected, so any school may use it. Ask whether lead teachers hold a Montessori credential, for example from AMI or AMS training.

Are Montessori schools licensed in Texas?

Every listing here comes from the Texas child care license records.

What ages do Montessori programs take?

It varies. Many start at 2.5 or 3 years; some take toddlers or infants. Each listing shows the ages it serves.
