Welcome to Eyas Global Montessori School
Located in the Lake Hills Neighborhood of Bellevue, Washington, Eyas provides a warm and welcoming environment for children 30 months through 6 years old. We offer half-day, full-day, and extended care preschool and kindergarten programs.
The school building is custom-designed, with natural lighting, large windows, and beautiful wood beams. See for yourself. Take a photo tour of our multi-aged Montessori classrooms. All children, from 2.5 to 6 years old, work together to foster community and cooperation. These children learn to honor each other as we honor them and their individual personhood.
Our school culture reflects the deepest Montessori values of mutual respect, cooperation, responsibility, empathy, and independence. We are proud members of the Pacific Northwest Montessori Association https://pnma.org/ and the American Montessori Association https://amshq.org/.

Children Lead Their Learning
The child is the center of the Montessori pedagogical approach to education. Through the hands-on work with the specifically designed materials the child gains real life experiences and builds independence. Your child will progress at a pace that is unique and perfect for them. The Montessori preschool teacher as a keen observer, guides the child at the right moment to allow the child to develop to their fullest potential, academic and emotional. Teachers "Follow the Lead of the Child."
Kindergarten Readiness
And Beyond
In our preschool and kindergarten environment, teachers help children fulfill their inner need for knowledge. This, in turn, helps the children self-construct their character and intellect while integrating their mind, body, and spirit. Maria Montessori discovered through her studies that “Please help me to do it myself” is the inner voice of the child. Children are guided to cultivate self-discipline, confidence, a sense of order, and independence. Their journey enables them to understand both academic study and their life outside the classroom, laying a solid foundation for their successful future.
Equity Pedagogy
At Eyas, we celebrate all students' identities. We learn their unique needs, feelings, minds, personalities, bodies, and culture. Our values emphasize the importance of diverse backgrounds. The school's programs incorporate culturally responsive instructional practices in our teaching. It is paramount that each child has the tools they specifically need to thrive.
Enriching Young Lives with Art, Dance, and Music
Art stimulates both sides of the brain, engages children's senses, and supports the development of cognitive, social-emotional, and multisensory skills. Art opens the heart and mind for possibilities and fuels imagination. It's also a ton of fun for everyone!
Carefully Designed
Outdoor Spaces
With outdoor activities, children develop fine and gross motor skills, becoming confident and strong movers. They swing, jump, dig, throw, and catch. Leisure here encompasses constructing, collaborating, problem-solving, and playing. Our kids put the "fun" in "function"! Eyas' Nature-rich curriculum builds their skills and healthy, active habits. By planting seeds, taking care of the garden, and harvesting, children observe science in action.
