History
The Academy was established by Bill and Fosca White in 2005 in response to the lack of high-quality full-time childcare and educational options for their two young sons. The school opened in the West Loop with 43 students and now welcomes nearly 300 students to its facility on a daily basis. The White family is committed to maintaining a staff of the finest Montessori teachers available. The school is fully accredited by the American Montessori Society and member school of the Association of Illinois Montessori Schools. It's nursery program is licensed by DCFS and the school is registered with the Illinois State Board of Education.
