About
Support the Power and Joy of Learning!
Ancona educates students to become creative problem solvers, confident risk takers, and independent, lifelong learners. Rooted in the Montessori tradition, our child-centered school stimulates the joy of learning and builds a strong academic foundation. We inspire children to nourish their inner lives, find the power in their own voices, and strive for justice and peace. In a community of cultural, economic, and individual diversity, Ancona cultivates understanding, care, and respect for others.
The ideas of Equity, Social Justice, Diversity, and Progressive Education at Ancona aren’t just concepts within our mission statement—they are joyful, daily practices. They actively live in our kindergarteners learning fairness, our fifth graders championing environmental activism, our eighth graders researching systemic change, and beyond within our graduates. We are nurturing the persistent, creative problem-solvers our future demands.
You can power this mission through The Butterfly Effect: Ancona’s Annual Fund. Family participation is our greatest strength; the more of us who join in, the larger our collective impact. Whether $50 or $5,000, your gift is a vital vote of confidence in our kids, our teachers, and our community.
Joy is in our classrooms. Joy is in our community. Joy is an act of resistance. Joy is the energy that sustains us. Join the Joyful Effort - Give to the Annual Fund!
