SPRING BILINGUAL
MONTESSORI ACADEMY
spring-bilingual.org info@spring-bilingual.org
301-962-7262 3514 Plyers Mill Road, Kensington, Md.

Ages: 2-6
Hours: 7:30 a.m.-6 p.m.

Since 1967, Spring Bilingual Montessori
Academy (SBMA) has protected and
encouraged children, and at the same time
challenged and stretched them to the limits
of their intellect and imaginations. Children
arrive at SBMA as two year olds, barely
out of diapers, and leave after kindergarten
at the age of six: confident, assured and
well-educated, possessing qualities of mind
and character which serve them well as they
continue to learn and achieve. Within the
walls of our school children become literate
and numerate. They develop pride in their
own accomplishments and respect for the
talents of their classmates. This is, above all,
where children learn how it feels to do one’s
best work, and to have the effort as well as
the product recognized and celebrated.
