FCPS Montessori Program Opportunity at Great Falls
Fairfax County Public Schools is expanding our Montessori Program in the 2026-27 school year with PreK and Kindergarten Early Childhood classrooms in the Langley Pyramid located at Great Falls Elementary School. Families will have the opportunity to apply through a lottery for this student-centered, multi-age learning environment.
The Montessori approach offers a unique classroom experience where students engage in learning through hands-on exploration. Guided by Montessori-certified teachers, students develop independence, critical thinking, and a lifelong approach to discovery within a learning environment equipped with specialized Montessori materials.
