Magnolia Montessori Academy opened its doors in August 2013 and was started by a group of like-minded parents who had a wish to provide more Montessori education in a neighborhood setting to more students in Polk County. Magnolia Montessori’s campus is located in the heart of Lakeland, FL.
We respect the child's freedom to choose, move, choose their work, and correct their own mistakes.
Children learn by watching and interacting with other children. Teachers learn each student's learning style.
Children use sensory-based learning tools that isolate a skill or concept, encourage hands-on learning, and problem-solving.
Office hours for phone calls:
Monday - Friday, 8am to 4pm

The school will enroll any eligible student who submits a timely application, unless the school receives a greater number of applications than there are spaces for students, in which case students will be admitted through a random selection process called a lottery. Magnolia Montessori Academy will adhere to the anti-discrimination provisions of s.1000.05.
