The greatest long-term benefit of a Montessori-inspired curriculum is the relationship your child builds with learning itself.

A traditional classroom might focus simply on teaching a child to memorize an answer. The Montessori approach focuses on teaching a child to say, "I can focus, I can solve problems, and I can try again."

In a Montessori environment, parents tend to first notice:
‣ Independence that looks like confidence
‣ Strong attention and follow-through
‣ Hands-on learning that sticks

At Ivybrook Academy, Montessori is part of a blended approach that also includes Reggio Emilia-inspired collaboration and creativity.

We are preparing students for kindergarten AND we are giving young citizens the tools to navigate the world.

Every Ivybrook student is an author!

Each year, our students brainstorm and illustrate their original stories, which they present during our Young Author Celebrations.

To honor their hard work and creativity, families are invited into our classrooms to hear these young writers proudly present their debut works.

🌿 Meet Jamie Smith Flatow, Chief Marketing Officer for Ivybrook Academy!

Why Ivybrook?

🌿 "As a parent of three girls (all now well past their preschool years) and a school board chair, I’ve seen firsthand how vital a strong early education is—not just for academic success, but for fostering a lifelong love of learning.

I am privileged to be able to highlight the dedication of our educators and staff, who make a difference in the world by nurturing young minds, and our campus owners, each with a unique journey that led them to Ivybrook.

And the best part? I get to visit campuses across the country, witnessing the pure joy that radiates from our students and educators every day. There’s truly nothing better!"
