Fostering a Lifelong Love for Learning
Villa di Maria believes a truly effective education is one that honors and inspires a child’s innate desire to learn and explore. The school strives toward academic excellence while fostering the enthusiasm and curiosity of each child. Mixed-age classroom environments are lively and child-centered and directed by world-class AMI-certified guides.
The Villa di Maria curriculum is designed to challenge students and promote competence, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning. In classrooms and the community, the emphasis is on the whole child. Students develop life skills such as problem-solving, teamwork, relationship-building, self-direction, and self-expression, as well as compassion and respect for their peers, community, environment, and the greater world.
For nearly 55 years, Villa di Maria has set the standard in St. Louis. The school serves children from 14 months to age 12 with an authentic Montessori education. For more information and to schedule your tour, visit villadimaria.org.
