What California does not publish here
The state publishes when licensing staff visited, not what they found. We do not hold California’s inspection findings, so nothing on this page tells you whether a visit resulted in a citation. A visit count is a measure of licensing activity, and a facility visited more often is not for that reason a worse one. Read the findings in California’s own facility search.

BCMA is the Best Montessori school in Alhambra. The Teachers are very loving and caring. They provide a very safe and friendly environment for children. My DD thrived at the school, she loved the teachers and her friends. We moved from Alhambra and unfortunately we had to take her out of the school. She misses are friends and teachers very dearly. Ms Mendy, Ms Diana and Ms Aracely are lovely teachers. I highly recommend this school.
J MFeb 15, 2021My daughter loves going to school here! In addition to Spanish, Mandarin, and piano lessons others have mentioned, she is also enrolled in the additional dance and gymnastics lessons and loves them. Her cognitive and social development have progressed rapidly during the short time she has attended. The staff are loving and attentive. I highly recommend this school.
Raphael LeibJan 31, 2019BCMA has exceeded my expectations in regards to its attention to care, diversity of activities, and academics. The staff is warm and attentive with all the kids. In just a few months, my daughter learned to write and work with numbers in ways I never imagined, and the fact that she's also learned Mandarin, Spanish, and piano is fantastic. They are also very inclusive, paying attention to non-mainstream cultural teachings so that kids can be aware of the diversity of the people around them. I enthusiastically recommend this place to prepare your kids for kindergarten.
Anne BazileJan 28, 2019We have been with this school for 3 years and couldn't be happier. The teachers and staff are warm, patient, and nurturing. My son loves going to school every day. He is also learning Spanish, Mandarin and piano every week. I highly recommend this school.
David SimonJan 21, 2019We are so happy to have found this school 3 years ago. My son looks forward to going everyday. The teachers and staff at BCMA are very caring and attentive. They provide Spanish, Mandarin and piano as part of their weekly curriculum. I highly recommend this school! It is a hidden gem.
Jennifer SimonJan 21, 2019BCMA has been a wonderful place for my 2 boys. The staff provides a caring environment for them to feel safe, learn, and have fun. My boys have been excited to go to school and enjoy spending time there. Once a week, they receive piano lessons and language lessons. They enjoy a schedule and an inclusive environment.
