About Us

Welcome to a different kind of school – one that provides a year-round Montessori program with internationally recognized educational standards. We are a safe, nurturing place that adapts to meet each child’s personality, abilities, and potential. Albemarle Montessori Children’s Community (AMCC) is a warm, friendly setting designed to enrich the child’s whole being. Our staff has created an environment where a child can grow and learn at his or her own pace and develop individually to his or her fullest potential. 

Montessori is one of the fastest growing forms of education in this country, and we adhere to the highest Montessori standards at AMCC. We are one of the only AMI-recognized schools in Central Virginia, with classrooms for  varying age groups. Our Toddler Class has eighteen-month-olds to three-year-olds, our Pre-Primary Class is for two and three year olds, our Primary Class has ages three through six, and our Elementary Program has first through sixth graders. All of the recent research in child development and education bears out the quality of the Montessori method for educating the young child.
