One of the unique features of a Montessori school is multi-age classrooms. Older students model appropriate behavior and guide their younger peers, all while making academic advancements of their own. Studies have shown that the Montessori Method provides a solid academic basis as well as exceptional social skills that prepare children well for kindergarten.

Kindergarten is a pivotal year. Here at ACA, our Montessori-certified teachers introduce academic subjects such as language arts, math, Spanish, science, social studies, and geography.

Not every family needs a full-time, five-day program. Some parents require only a few days to cover gaps in care, or prefer shorter hours to ease a younger child into the school transition. Whether you’re seeking only a few days or a few hours of child care? Check out our flexible academic programs, available as half-day, full-day, or with extended care.

Developing Future Leaders

Top North Austin Montessori School

At the Austin Children’s Academy, we embrace the child-centered philosophy of the Montessori Method for a reason. This method is geared toward harnessing a child’s natural curiosity to develop initiative, creativity, and a love of learning. Our students absorb facts and figures as well as methods of exploring and engaging with the world that will serve them for a lifetime.

Montessori-educated graduates are leaders and iconoclasts. They include Jeff Bezos of Amazon, the magician David Blane, the violinist Joshua Bell, the journalist Katharine Graham, and the Nobel-prize winning author Gabriel Garcia Marquez.

Come visit our Cedar Park montessori. When you meet our certified instructors you’ll see why ACA offers the best educational opportunities for your young leaders.

“We discovered that education is not something which the teacher does, but that it is a natural process which develops spontaneously in the human being.”

– Dr. Maria Montessori
