Rainbow Montessori School

Rainbow Montessori School, founded in 1980 by Doris Rasmussen, is a private Montessori school in Scottsdale, AZ with campuses at 6520 E Cactus Rd (Cactus) and 6402 E Voltaire Ave (Voltaire). It serves children from 18 months through Kindergarten in toddler, primary, and preschool programs, offering 2-3-5 day full/half-day options and summer programs. Affiliated with the American Montessori Society (AMS), it features Montessori-educated teachers with 20+ years experience, observation windows, on-site animals like a goat and lovebirds, and rolling admissions (100% acceptance). Reviews praise child growth, caring staff, and reading readiness but note issues like communication gaps, high absences, and staff turnover.
