We're committed to creating a supportive & stimulating environment where each child learns at his own pace and we allow time for that growth to take place.
Vernon Hills Montessori Academy (formerly Montessori & Music Academy) was founded in 2000 and opened its doors as a first Montessori School in America with a music curriculum.
We are a private, nonsectarian school, with no religious affiliation and we are a diverse community, full member of the American Montessori Society (AMS), licensed by DCFS and registered with the Illinois State Board of Education, affiliated with Illinois State Music Teachers Association, Music Teachers National Association, and American College of Musicians.
At Vernon Hills Montessori Academy, we are committed to creating a supportive and stimulating environment where each child learns at his own pace and we allow time for that growth to take place. The Montessori Method is based on deep respect for and understanding of child development.
Our focused educational effort is based on the belief that children have an innate desire to learn, manifest their potential, and discover ways to contribute meaningfully to the world community.
It is a philosophy with practical returns. Our students consistently demonstrate high levels of academic achievements as well as confidence, sensitivity towards others and independence.
Vernon Hills Montessori Academy and Arts is an established school for families with children 15 months - 6 years (toddler, preschool & kindergarten) old with programs that promote self-respect, independence and responsibility to their community.
