The Montessori Advantage

The Montessori Advantage

At the Montessori Academy of Virginia, students thrive in a nurturing and inclusive community where close student-teacher relationships support personal and academic growth. Our individualized approach allows educators to truly understand each child—encouraging meaningful friendships, self-confidence, and a lifelong love of learning.

Many parents report that children who transition from our Montessori program to public or traditional school settings often perform above grade level—frequently excelling in honors and advanced courses. These outcomes, along with our emphasis on social-emotional development, lead many families to confidently recommend our Academy.

Beyond academics, our students develop essential life skills such as self-discipline, empathy, and peaceful conflict resolution. As a result, our school environment fosters both high achievement and respectful, cooperative behavior.

We take pride in our reputation for cultivating well-rounded, academically accomplished students who are prepared not just for school—but for life.

Every child’s learning journey begins with curiosity. A tour of our classrooms will show how independence, respect, and exploration come alive each day. Start your child’s story with us — schedule your visit today.

  • Our family has received incredible value from MAV. We’ve been with the school for 7 years and are amazed at how much our children have learned and grown under MAV’s care. The teachers and staff all care about the kids in a way that isn’t institutional. I highly recommend MAV for those looking to let their children safely explore life.
