Montessori Academy of Carrboro and Chapel Hill is more than just a daycare and traditional private preschool. Our mission is to equip each child with the skills he or she needs to thrive. Our classrooms provide a stimulating environment with developmental-appropriate activities to cultivate each child’s natural desire to learn. The Academy serves children ages 12 months to 6 years of age year-round.
We maintain a strong commitment to offering quality education based upon the curriculum pioneered over 120 years ago by Dr. Maria Montessori.
Montessori classrooms are called “Children’s Houses” where they are provided with hands-on materials that enable them to learn math, language, science, and history while at the same time, developing intellectual curiosity, self-respect, and respect for the world around them. Children are motivated to learn and excel; consequently they are empowered by feelings of intrinsic satisfaction and self confidence.
