El Montecito School is where character meets wisdom.
We inspire a deep love of learning about the world and our Creator. ELMO students think critically, reason logically, and communicate clearly while loving God and others wholeheartedly.
We are a private non-profit school located in beautiful downtown Santa Barbara. Founded in 1958, El Montecito School provides academic Christian education to 160 children from preschool through elementary and up to sixth grade.
"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding." Proverbs 9:10
