Villa di Maria serves children ages 14 months through 12 years
Montessori provides mixed-age community classrooms, so that the youngest children have the opportunity to look to the older children as role models, and the older children have the opportunity to flourish with this responsibility. As each child grows within the classroom, they take on greater responsibilities within the community and develop richer relationships with peers.
