Established in 1996 Celebrating 30 Years Legacy of Excellence in Montessori Education

Welcome to Our Farm School

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.

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

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.

Knowledge is best given where there is eagerness to learn, so this is the period when the seed of all things can be sown, the child’s mind being like a fertile field, ready to receive what will germinate into a culture.

What parents say about us
  • 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.

  • Montessori Academy of Virginia Suffolk campus has been a excellent learning environment for my 6 year old daughter! She has attended the school for three years and has learned so many academic and life lessons. Ms. Yoko has been a wonderful and responsive teacher.

    Dr. Dowling
  • Our family loves MAV! We enrolled our child for his first full school year and the experience has been amazing. He loved his teacher and made many friends in his class. He has also improved on his Montessori skills and independence. All of the staff are friendly and very communicative with the students and parents. We definitely recommend MAV to our friends and family!
