Welcome to The Tidewater School!  We are a small, independent school where students are inspired to learn through hands-on exploration and self-discovery within a research-based curriculum.  Childhood is celebrated, respected, and nurtured at The Tidewater School.  Our students think learning is fun!

Our dedicated, Montessori-trained teachers create an environment that supports each student’s strengths and unique learning styles.  We are the only school in southern Maryland that offers a completely individualized and developmentally respectful curriculum.  

Please browse our website to learn about our philosophy, policies and procedures.  We look forward to meeting you.  Welcome to The Tidewater School’s community of friends!

The Tidewater School is fully certified by the Maryland State Department of Education as a private not-for-profit educational corporation providing Montessori education for ages 3-12.

The Tidewater School does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, or cultural creed. As we celebrate our differences, we discover great gifts in one another!
