AMAC Home

Arlington Montessori Action Committee is an organization of Montessori parents and educators whose primary goal is to promote and expand Montessori education. We are proud of our vibrant and diverse Arlington Public School Montessori program which currently serves more than 500 students.

AMAC was formed in late 2006 by several Arlington Montessori parents from different schools as a way to build community and to formalize years of Montessori advocacy. AMAC is not affiliated with any one school, but serves as a way for all Montessori advocates, public and private, to support Montessori education.

You are cordially invited to an APS Elementary Montessori Prospective Parent Reception


Sunday, February 26, 2012 from 3:00 to 4:30 pm

At the home of Antony and Leah Maderal
3307 21st Avenue N, Arlington, VA 22207

Arlington Public Schools offers an amazing free Elementary Montessori education for Grades 1-5. The countywide APS Montessori Elementary program is hosted at Drew Model School, a light-filled, modern school facility with an up-to-the-minute technology program and a focus on the arts.

Are you considering Elementary Montessori for your child?
Come to the reception to meet current Elementary Montessori parents and teachers and get answers to all your questions.

The event is free and open to all Arlington parents interested in Elementary Montessori. It is an adults-only event and childcare is not available.
