Riverstone Montessori Academy

Most public and private schools are just variations of the conventional form of education. Riverstone Montessori Academy is excited to provide a truly unique approach that works for both remedial and advanced students. Our Montessori school offers Cobb County’s most advanced, truly individualized academic program starting in our private preschool and extending through middle school. The success of our program allows our private middle school graduates to easily score at the high school or college level on traditional achievement tests while gaining a skill set to succeed in future academic and professional environments.

Much like stones in a stream, smoothed and transformed by the flow of water and their effects on one another, Dr. Maria Montessori believed that a student’s later interest in education is dramatically influenced by his/her early educational environment and experiences with others. Her expectations have been borne out in the testimonials of modern IT entrepreneurs. Sergey Brin & Larry Page founders of Google, Will Wright creator of The Sims, and Jeremy Allaire of the Brightcove video platform specifically identify their early Montessori school education as instrumental in their success. The creators of Wikipedia, Amazon, and others were also former Montessori education students.

Riverstone Montessori Academy is excited to provide an advanced private school educational setting designed to encourage values of integrity and compassion within a framework of advanced academic study and professional development. We look forward to inspiring the innovators of tomorrow!

A Montessori school education may be very different from your previous experiences. It is a developmentally based system of education spanning 14 years. Our private school program was methodically designed by a trained physician over fifty years of study and scientific research. Dr. Maria Montessori focused on determining how children learn best during different stages of development and what is necessary to ensure each child’s success regardless of ability. While aspects of the Montessori school program are continually integrated into traditional schools, and though it is found in countries around the world, people unfamiliar with Montessori education are often unsure of how this successful program works.

Following the 100th anniversary of Montessori education, Riverstone Montessori Academy seeks to raise the educational expectations of parents and education professionals in the community. Elementary students doing the BIG work of squaring.
