Montessori Schools in Davie, Cooper City & Southwest Ranches
5 montessori schools are registered with the state in Davie, Cooper City & Southwest Ranches, and 4 are flagged for the Florida Private School Scholarship ($8,494 K-3 · $7,896 4-8 · $7,701 9-12 in 2026-27). Western Broward's college-and-horse-country corner: the Nova Southeastern University and Florida Atlantic University campuses in Davie, suburban Cooper City, and the large-lot streets of Southwest Ranches.
Funding note: Many Montessori programs run below the state award for the lower grades, which leaves money in the account if the family uses PEP or FES-UA, or covers extended-day hours if not.
