Lexington Montessori School is an independent day school serving children from 21 months to 14 years. It delivers Montessori pedagogy in classrooms guided by certified Montessori educators, with students learning through self-discovery. The curriculum spans Practical Life, Sensorial, Math, Language and Cultural Studies, and integrates anti-bias education across all learning. In addition to core Montessori work, students participate in art, farming, library, music, physical education and a Spanish language program. The campus hosts METTC, the Montessori Elementary Teacher Training Collaborative, on site for eight weeks each summer, and Horizons@LMS as a Horizons National affiliate. The community emphasizes outdoor learning, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging, and maintains small class sizes with an average 6:1 ratio. The 23-acre campus includes 19 acres acquired in 2018 with woods, streams and wetlands, plus an A-Frame meeting space, a greenhouse and a farming program. Outdoor field studies and service projects broaden civic awareness and environmental stewardship.
