About Tierra Vista Montessori School
Tierra Vista Montessori School Marble Falls
Founded in 1995 by Annie and Willie Nelson, Tierra Vista Montessori School offers a prepared environment designed to foster cognitive and emotional growth. Moving to Marble Falls in 2007, the school provides a traditional schoolhouse atmosphere where multi-age groupings allow younger children to learn from older peers. The curriculum focuses on practical life, sensorial development, math, and language, delivered through self-directed, hands-on exploration. A standout feature is the integrated seed-to-table program. Children are active participants in gardening and meal preparation, learning to set formal tables with real plates and cloth napkins. This focus on whole foods and community is paired with a curriculum that encourages independence and concentration. The facility provides flexible scheduling with 3-day and 5-day options and extended hours to support working families.
What Parents Say
4 reviews from parents
We love this place! The staff is so personable and you can tell the immense love they have for the students and their job. They give more communication than is probably necessary, but I appreciate that more than anything. The owner is incredibly sweet and resilient. I love getting picture updates too. All in all, this is a great, caring Montessori school and the only Montessori in the area to my knowledge.
There is a big difference in for profit and not for profit daycare facilities. Unfortunately, in my experience this facility is all for profit at the expense of it's students.
My son has excelled at this school tremendously and the staff truly loves each child. I appreciate the real world lessons they are taught.
