ABOUT US:

At MMAEC we give students learning options. What better way to learn about water filtration than helping revitalize rivers Learning may begin in the classroom but our students move from desks to dirt planting seeds in soil and tending to our gardens to see what happens afterward.

Here at Muskegon Montessori Academy for Environmental Change (MMAEC) the world is our guidebook. Science and nature guide children at MMAEC to experience learning. What makes us great is our belief that children thrive because we allow their learning to expand to endless possibilities becoming an individualized learning path for each student.
