California Montessori Project-San Juan Campuses District

Located in the suburban community of Carmichael, California, within the greater Sacramento-Roseville-Folsom metropolitan area, the California Montessori Project-San Juan Campuses District operates as an active, independent public charter district dedicated to tuition-free Montessori education. Operating from its administrative office at 5330A Gibbons Drive, Suite 700, the district provides a continuous academic pathway spanning kindergarten through eighth grade. During the 2024–2025 school year, the district served a student body of 1,545 pupils, comprising 839 male and 706 female students. Enrollment is particularly robust in the foundational primary years—led by nearly 300 kindergarteners—and transitions smoothly into upper-elementary and middle school cohorts. The student population reflects a diverse suburban demographic, including 890 White, 329 Hispanic, 239 multiracial, 53 Asian, and 28 Black students, along with American Indian and Pacific Islander representation.

To support its specialized, child-centered instructional approach, the district maintains a substantial operational and educator workforce totaling over 362 full-time equivalent (FTE) staff members. Classroom instruction is led by 119 FTE teachers who work in close collaboration with more than 81 FTE instructional aides, delivering a low student-to-educator ratio that aligns with classic Montessori individualization. The academic environment is further strengthened by a dedicated support staff of over 162 FTE personnel, ensuring holistic care, administrative guidance, and comprehensive student services across its campus site.
