We are a community of parents, artists, farmers, entrepreneurs, and professionals, who are personally invested in bringing the Montessori method of education to the town of Abingdon, VA.
We believe children to be intrinsically good, intrinsically peaceful and intrinsically motivated to learn. We seek to create a learning environment that moves fluidly among school, home, and community, nesting children within a rich context of opportunities centered on their growth, and flexible to change when that growth demands.
Moonflower Montessori School is designed to support children and their families, inside and outside of school.
We offer a primary program (ages 3-6) and an elementary program (ages 6-12) that meet the unique strengths, needs, and challenges of each child.
The mission of Moonflower Montessori School is to offer authentic Montessori primary and elementary programs that meet the unique strengths and challenges of each child. The teacher-leader, parent community, board members and volunteers work together to provide the children with an atmosphere of support that allows for genuine learning.
We are thrilled to be in the very heart of downtown Abingdon, VA! Our 211 W. Main Street location puts our students within walking distance of the Abingdon Farmers Market, The Virginia Creeper Trail, Washington County Public Library, The Arts Depot, Barter Theatre, and so many local businesses!
