“The education of even a small child, therefore, does not aim at preparing him for school, but for life.”  ~Maria Montessori

 Welcome to the Yonkers Montessori Academy,  I am Mrs. Mary Ann Fava. I will have the pleasure of teaching your child this 2020 - 2021 school year.  I have been a teacher for over 25 years.  Every year I enjoy watching my students develop their potential and become respectful, responsible citizens. 

 While this year may have a unique beginning, it is sure to be an exciting time as your child begins their journey to becoming a lifelong learner.  Positive social interactions and peaceful conflict resolution among the children will enable them to become more independent and self-confident . Each child’s individual and social needs will be met while demonstrating that learning is fun and exciting whether remotely or in school.

 It is important to keep an open line of communication.   I look forward to a wonderful partnership with you in your child’s education.  Please let your child know that we are looking forward to being back in school as soon as we are able to return.  

 Please feel free to contact me with any concerns or questions.

-Mrs. Fava
