A curriculum guided by the proven success of the Montessori Method, hands-on and diversified experiential learning, a community dedicated to the full enrichment of children, highly qualified and passionate teachers in each classroom and an intimate classroom setting - these elements translate into the exceptional Montessori education for students at Woodside Montessori Academy.
The Woodside Montessori Academy Parent Guild offers opportunities for active and passive giving. The WMA Parent Guild organizes an annual Color FUNrun in the spring and another community based option such as a Trivia Night in the fall. Independent schools such as Woodside Montessori rely on participation in fundraising efforts and charitable gifts to provide enhancements to each student’s educational experience.
In recent years, fundraising and gifts to the school have provided enrichment programs for the children at each level, contributed to the enhancement of our outdoor classroom, contributed to the expansion of our technology and STEAM programs, and purchased instrument elements for our sound garden.
Many families choose to make their children's and grandchildren's school the philanthropic priority for their family. They know these gifts truly matter and that there is no better investment in the future than to invest in children.

WMA Children’s Fund
Woodside Montessori Academy is dedicated to the educational growth of all students regardless of financial status. In that spirit we have created the WMA Children’s Fund to assist families dedicated to the Montessori method who need financial assistance to continue their Montessori education. The WMA Children’s Fund is funded in part by the money that is raised through the WMA Parent Guild with a percentage of fundraising money set aside for this fund. We also depend on the generosity of people like you who support the fund. When you support the Fund you are helping a child have the opportunity to reach their full potential as they learn in an environment that nurtures curiosity and growth. As part of the WMA Parent Guild your contributions to the WMA Children’s Fund are tax deductible and will be used specifically to help families in need of tuition assistance.
