Dixon Montessori Charter School (DMCS) is a parent-founded charter school. DMCS is authorized by the Dixon Unified School District and chartered by the California State Board of Education.
The mission of DMCS is to provide a non-traditional elementary school option to local families. Maria Montessori said, "There is a part of a child's soul that has always been unknown but which must be known. With a spirit of sacrifice and enthusiasm we must go in search, like those who travel to foreign lands and tear up mountains in their search for hidden gold." It is in that spirit of sacrifice and enthusiasm that families in the Dixon community created the Dixon Montessori Charter School.
