WELCOME TO
American Montessori Academy
Montessori Education
We are a network of independent Montessori schools that offer year-round, all-day programs based upon the Montessori Method in stimulating learning facilities, located in South Loop and Uptown—Andersonville, and affiliate school, Northbrook.
Our main objectives are to provide a carefully planned, stimulating environment which helps children develop within themselves the foundational habits, attitudes, skills and ideas which are essential for a lifetime of creative thinking and learning. When engaged in well-structured tasks, the students experience a deep inner satisfaction which leaves them with an overall positive attitude toward the joy of learning.
