Who We Are
The Montessori Academy of Lancaster provides a nurturing, loving, educational climate. Here, your child is respected for her or his individual differences. Our teachers, functioning as facilitators, introduce children to the world around them and encourage each to fulfill his or her unique potential.
We recognize the interrelationship of physical, emotional, social, and intellectual growth and work to unify each aspect of your child's development in our school setting. Using Montessori materials in the practical life, sensorial, and academic areas, we seek to prepare each child for life by instilling a love for learning, a respect for our world, and a consideration for all people.
At Montessori Academy of Lancaster, you will find students engaged in hands-on activities and self-directed learning and receiving nurturing guidance from teachers and staff. Our aim is to use a holistic approach to honor the unique needs of each student while fostering a deep respect for the diversity of human experience. It's a joyful and meaningful place to learn!
