Dr. Montessori placed a crucial emphasis on Botany and Zoology in the classrooms; the inclusion of nature is critical in Montessori education. Our students have access to our privately owned farm “Montessori Acres”. Our farm provides the students with a tremendous opportunity to interact with nature, and have hands-on practical experience within outdoor learning spaces, animals, green spaces, and gardens.



Montessori Acres provides the foundation for our students to explore, touch, smell, taste, and heighten their senses in a natural setting. The classroom at Montessori Acres features a collection of unique lessons that explore the Montessori curriculum of Botany and Zoology.

The animals love to be admired and cared for by all the students of Montessori Academy. They are very well socialized and are a part of the hands-on learning experience.
