"...Every detail of Ms. Bednarz’s classroom is designed to facilitate independent learning. The room features natural lighting, an organized layout, and an atmosphere that is both inviting and peaceful. The shelves are lined with specialized materials with names such as “pink tower” for learning spatial awareness and “golden beads” for understanding the base 10 mathematical model. When students handle these materials, they are able to connect abstract concepts with hands-on learning. In this environment, Ms. Bednarz teaches students directly as they move calmly between their self-directed lessons and activities...." ► Click to Read More
Personalized Paths. Limitless Possibilities.
At Montessori Academy, we believe that learning is most powerful when it is personal, purposeful, and rooted in the whole child. Our programs, from Toddler through 8th Grade, are based on the philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori, who recognized the potential of children to learn independently when given the right environment and support. Rather than following a one-size-fits-all curriculum, our students explore hands-on materials, follow their interests, and move at their own pace with guidance from trained educators who understand their unique needs.
Montessori classrooms are calm, thoughtfully prepared spaces that promote independence, movement, and concentration. Multi-age communities encourage mentoring and collaboration, while lessons are introduced individually and at the right developmental moment. In this environment, students develop not only academic mastery in subjects like math, reading, and writing but also essential life skills such as time management, conflict resolution, and self-regulation.
We are committed to nurturing intellectual curiosity, emotional intelligence, and a deep love of learning. Our approach is centered on intrinsic motivation, where students are inspired by discovery and the satisfaction of meaningful work, rather than driven by tests or rewards. Each child is encouraged to grow into a capable, confident, and compassionate learner who is prepared to thrive in a complex and changing world.
Montessori Academy is more than a school. It is a community of educators, families, and students working together to support growth in every area: academic, social, emotional, and physical. We believe in the power of education to transform lives and are proud to offer a learning environment where children are truly known, supported, and inspired to reach their full potential.
