This month, we proudly celebrate a major achievement for our school community as Vision Montessori of Chantilly has been officially granted accreditation by the Middle States Association (MSA).
This is a major milestone for our school reflecting the dedication of our teachers, the curiosity of our students, and the trust of our families. This recognition affirms our commitment to high quality Montessori education, strong academic standards, and a nurturing environment where every child can thrive.
May arrives with sunshine, celebration, and a wonderful lineup of learning experiences across all our classrooms! As flowers bloom and the days grow warmer, our students will explore new themes, enjoy hands‑on activities, and participate in special events that make this month meaningful for children and families alike.

This month includes Cinco de Mayo, Mother’s Day, Teacher Appreciation Week, Open House, Graduation, and Memorial Day, along with rich academic and cultural learning across every age group.

Across all classrooms—from Infants to Kindergarten—students will celebrate culture, family, and gratitude. Children will create thoughtful crafts, learn about traditions, and honor the special women in their lives.
