Maximilian Montessori Academy is a private school, founded in 1988 and serving Owensboro and the surrounding area.
We educate children from pre-school through the completion of the high school years.

We offer a small, carefully designed environment, which provides some features that cannot conveniently be offered in the more traditional settings.
