Fox Valley Montessori School is a child centered, peaceful, safe
and family focused educational community. We are guided by
the Montessori principles, fostering a child's life-long love of
learning, academic achievement, self confidence, mutual respect,
and independence. We nurture children's individual
development and inspire their joyful discovery. The Fox Valley
Montessori Community believes in the child as a whole being. We
strive to foster the growth of global citizens through social and
environmental responsibility, creative and critical thinking,
leadership, and life management skills.
Fox Valley Montessori School was founded 44 years ago by concerned
parents looking for a unique and positive educational experience
for their children. The school has long been a respected part of
the local community, educating generations of families.
FVMS offers programs for children ages 15 months through 6th grade,
taught by certified, experienced, Montessori teachers. Our bright
and spacious classrooms are equipped with genuine Montessori
materials. Our teaching staff works collaboratively to offer each
student the best opportunities to grow academically, personally and
socially. We offer a unique, hands on learning experience that
cultivates children's natural inquisitiveness and provides
opportunities for divergent thinking.
In the fall of 2012, Fox Valley Montessori began the first
Montessori STEM Education program in the state of Illinois, funded
in part through a grant from the UIC Colloquium for World Class
Education. The school was awarded the grant based on our innovative
learning model and our comprehensive plan to enhance the STEM
oriented thinking styles already encouraged by the Montessori
classroom.
In addition to our beautiful classrooms, FVMS students enjoy a 2200
square foot gymnasium, and three separate outdoor environments. Our
students participate in physical education, music, yoga, art, and
Spanish, taught by specialized teachers. We also offer
extracurricular activities including chess, dance, martial arts,
crafts and yoga.
