Montessori Dual Language Academy

Montessori Dual Language Academy is a distinguished early childhood education center in Forest Park, Illinois, offering a Spanish and English dual language Montessori program for preschool and kindergarten-aged children. The academy is dedicated to providing an enriching and challenging educational environment where every child is encouraged to grow to their fullest potential academically, emotionally, and socially.

Through the authentic Montessori curriculum combined with bilingual education programs, children develop in prepared environments that foster independence, critical thinking, and love of learning. The school helps children develop respect for themselves, others, and the environment as citizens of the global community. Students benefit from immersion in both Spanish and English languages, developing bilingual proficiency from an early age.

The academy features award-winning, Montessori-certified faculty who provide individualized instruction based on each child’s developmental needs and interests. Additional enrichment includes music classes, art classes, and Japanese lessons, creating a well-rounded educational experience. The program follows Montessori principles emphasizing hands-on learning, self-directed activity, and collaborative play.

As a Full Member School of the American Montessori Society (AMS), the academy meets rigorous standards for Montessori education. Year-round program options provide flexibility for families’ scheduling needs. The convenient location near the Eisenhower Expressway makes access easy for families throughout the western suburbs.

The school is currently undergoing a transformation to become the Montessori Dual Language Academy, continuing its commitment to bilingual Montessori education. Tours are available by appointment, and summer camp programs are offered. The academy provides a nurturing, culturally rich environment where young children build strong foundations for lifelong learning and multilingual competency.
