Foothill Montessori of Salt Lake

For more than 40 years, Foothill Montessori of Salt Lake has been a trusted part of the Salt Lake Valley, providing an authentic Montessori education that nurtures the whole child. Rooted in Dr. Maria Montessori's philosophy, we create a rich learning environment where children develop independence, curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong passion for learning.

Our vision is to empower children to become thoughtful, compassionate individuals who create positive change in the world. By fostering peaceful relationships, honoring diverse cultures and perspectives, and cultivating respect for one another and our planet, we prepare students not only for academic success but also for lives of purpose, responsibility, and service. We believe that an authentic Montessori education inspires children to become lifelong learners and caring stewards of their communities and the earth for generations to come.
