“ We could not be happier. The Montessori experience - especially the way in which MFS teachers reveal and work with its marvelous strengths as a learning and teaching philosophy - touches every aspect of children's lives. MFS teachers have that rare gift for making everything into a learning experience. ” — Boyce B.

Montessori Farm School, located in Hillsborough, NC, provides education for preschool and kindergarten children. An American Montessori Society Full Member School, Montessori Farm School (MFS) provides each child individual, developmentally appropriate instruction using traditional Montessori materials and methods. Our lead teachers are Montessori-certified and have decades of combined experience. In teaching Montessori material and emphasizing a farm- and nature-based curriculum, MFS nurtures a passion for discovery, while giving children the foundation and tools to be academically competitive in the future.
Montessori Farm School serves children from preschool through kindergarten. Preschoolers, ages 3-4, attend daily from 8:30 to 12:15. Five year olds (known as “extended day” or the kindergarten year) attend daily from 8:30 to 3:00.
At Montessori Farm School, each child is treated as an individual: we believe that every child possesses unique strengths and has gifts to share with the school community. Using traditional Montessori materials and methods, children move through a series of lessons within different areas of the classroom - practical life, sensorial, language, mathematics, science, art, and social cultural studies. In addition, MFS children participate in agricultural and nature-based activities, Spanish, art, music, and physical education.
MFS teachers "follow the child" through his or her lessons: guiding, observing, and facilitating each child's education in a way unique to Montessori Farm School. At MFS each child experiences a connection to the natural world, a sense of responsibility to the community, and develops mastery - from concrete concepts right through abstract thinking.
