Currently enrolling students from twelve towns, BFMA provides programs grounded in the philosophy of Maria Montessori and enriched by a strong arts focus.

We work together to cultivate a vibrant Montessori learning community where children are inspired to grow with joy, purpose and compassion. Through the wonder of direct exploration, the satisfaction of engaged learning, and the integration of visual and performing arts, Bay Farm Montessori Academy students develop the skills and sense of responsibility to be confident learners, eager to understand themselves and their world.
